ANBRICO DVD St.Pancras to Manchester
Price: £12.50

Welcome to the website of the 125 Group. We are the only group dedicated to following the Intercity 125 (HST). Our magazine is the most reliable source of information on the HST fleet.

Our ultimate aim is to preserve an example of this fine train after the end of its working life.

 

On this website you will find information on the history and current operations of the HST fleet. You will also find information about the 125 Group and an invitation to join us.

Valenta Diesels LTD

Posted by Admin on Tuesday, January 19, 2010

During the Autumn, the VDL board had a 'strategy meeting' to discuss and set forth what precisely our primary objective should be.

If we take a look at the 125 Groups Aims & Objectives, the ultimate aim is set forth as; "To raise enough money to purchase some examples of IC 125 rolling stock to enter preservation. Such rolling stock shall include one or more power cars, as near as possible to original operational configuration, but including as a minimum a Paxman Valenta engined power car, Marston cooler group and original shaped front end."

After much discussion considering endless posibilities and scenarios, we decided to 'Keep it simple' with three main points;

- VDL's primary objective is to run "a Valenta-engined power car on an HST"
- This may mean owning a single power car, and running this on another owners HST set.
- There is no commitment to mainline running, and VDL does not envisage becoming a train operator.

However, this is by no means set in stone. Should the circumstances to acquire a full 2+8 set be right, we obviously wouldn't say no!

Bug fixed

Posted by Admin on Monday, July 20, 2009

There was an issue with the Online shop which only seemed to occur with Internet explorer 8, that is, it squashed the table which the items were displayed in making it very difficult to read and navigate.

This has now been fixed and should display properly.

May Timetable change

Posted by Admin on Thursday, May 21, 2009

As you will all know, the May timetable change has just occured and most TOCs diagrams will have changed to increase service level as we head toward the Summer.

We update the diagrams on this website as and when they become available to us and it should be stressed that this is through individuals good will. Diagrams are not generally freely available, even to TOC staff without sifting through TOPS and we do not have a specific person who provides them each time there is an update.

Please do not email asking when the diagrams will be updated, as we have informed people who have already requested, they will be updated on this website when they become available to us.

Thankyou for your patience.
