An HST returns to the WCML again! However, it's not quite as they used to be when in operation by Virgin Trains! Now rather than being in public service they are utilised by the charter market and very well they are going down too! With 43058 leading and 43049 trailing a recently refurbished and repainted Mk. III coach is sandwiched between the two. The coach is returning from Arlington's at Eastleigh with the train operating as 5Z58 10.23 Eastleigh to Crewe's LSL base. Both these power cars are former EMT ones that both came out of service in May 2021 but now are seen passing the site of Roade station but now on the West Coast route rather than the Midland.
