In its shiny new Avanti West Coast livery, 390156 passes Victoria bridge just south of Roade on the WCML forming the 11.30 Euston to Glasgow Central 1S58 service. I'm glad that the designers of this livery have retained some of the white as left by Virgin when they 'stripped' the trains' previous identity in the run-up to the change of franchise. Without these areas and the other bright flashes of orange, the Pendolinos would have looked very drab and rather like GWR's awfull livery as applied to their stock.
