Worcester Shrub Hill photoshoot

Worcester Shrub Hill is the city's largest station (though not the one i use). Its a bit of a walk from work but i had time to take these photographs in my lunchbreak, including a lovely HST. A train i hated in my youth but now i love utterly.

The reason for both is interesting. In the past it was probably because the HST was always the train that got on TV in adverts and i wanted to see class 25s instead. Nowadays with a traction scene increasingly dominated by ugly multiple units the HST remains the ultimate DMU, its a link to my past and is a design classic!
