Hornby R30177 RailRoad BR Class 43 HST InterCity Train Pack - Era 8 OO Scale

Originally conceived as a cheaper, more reliable alternative to the Advanced Passenger Train in the early 1970s, the British Railways Board authorised the development of a prototype High Speed Diesel Train, with two locomotives designated as Class 41. Following problems with operational ease, unit formations were abandoned and the Class 43 locomotive prefix was adopted. The 197 Class 43 power cars produced between 1976 and 1982 were numbered 43002 to 43198 and are officially the fastest diesel units in the world.
