Having brought up the tail of the 09.30 Penzance to London Paddington, 43191 takes a breath for half an hour or so before it works west again as the 16.04 return to Penzance. It's pretty incredible that these forty year old veterans of the main line are still capable of such demanding diagrams. 43191 was a power car of one of the very last HSTs put into service as 253055 in the summer of 1982.
