43003, GW 13.00 Bristol Temple Meads-London Paddington (1A18) & 43158, GW 11.24 Swansea-London Paddington (1L55), London Paddington station 
 With platforms one and two out of use due to engineering work, the rest of Paddington's platforms were under a bit of pressure. Here, 43003 (ex 253002) has just terminated with the 13.00 from Bristol Temple Meads. Meanwhile, 43158 arrived earlier with the 11.24 from Swansea. This scene, HSTs side by side at Paddington, is something familiar to all of us for four decades but it is something that will change dramatically over the coming couple of years.
