Yet again it stopped in platform 6 for relief and setting down staff at 18.03. At least unlike the last time it ran (as an HST) the 17.30 Manchester-Cardiff wasn't standing waiting to get in until somebody thought to get the driver to move because it had stopped so far short that the subsidiary signal didn't clear.

Thanks Childwall. I had neglected to read back over recent quotes so apologies for the oversight.

It's standard BR Blue Large Logo not the Railfreight variant.
