390152, VT 11.20 London Euston-Manchester Piccadilly (1H21, 2L) & 175111, AW 13.31 Manchester Piccadilly-Tenby (1V55, 5L), Manchester Piccadilly station Wreaking of fresh, new paint, 39152 stands at the blocks at Manchester Piccadilly having arrived with the 11.20 from Euston. It is in its new 'nude' livery devoid of any colour or branding on its flanks. This treatment has been afforded to an increasing number of the Pendolinos as a precursor to Virgin franchise expiring at the beginning of December. My wife and I travelled on this service from Milton Keynes. On the adjacent platform eight 175111 is just leaving with the 13.31 to Tenby.
