As my readers will know, I am not a fan of the Voyager family of trains be they operated by CrossCountry or Avanti West Coast as seen here. However, in the case of these former Virgin liveried Class 221s, their time is now limited with new bi-mode units having been ordered to replace them. So I make a point of photographing them when I am out as here at the site of Roade station. In superb evening light with a dramatic sky 221103 'Christopher Columbus' works the 1D91 17.10 London Euston to Holyhead service.
