The usual trains at speed should be released around September this year.

There's only one thing better than seeing these diesels at speed...and that's driving them! I had the huge good fortune to drive HST's prior to my retirement and I never tired of the sound of a whistling Valenta engine under hard acceleration through the cutting north of St. Pancras and into Belsize tunnel.....

Very few things are better than seeing a HST with Valentas at full flight. The scream as they fly by is amazing! I only wish I could have seen it in person (I'm in Australia). Gives me tingles watching the videos though.

KTM (Keretapi Tanah Melayu) Malaysia, since 2021 has been using 12 units DMU (Diesel Multi Unit) Class 61@ 4 Coaches made by CRRC Zhuzhou-China for its East Coast Rail Route (Jungle Line) from Gemas, Negeri Sembilan to Tumpat, Negeri Kelantan. The DMU61 Trainset has Top Speed of 140kph on single metre gauge track as long as 539km.

@StarlifeStudios love the network rail hdt and the 37s on rhtt. Amazing video to watch, thank you!

For Great Western and East Coast 800s, drivers have the ability to switch should there be an issue with the wires or train pantograph. In most of the cases, this is an issue with the train rather than the wires but the option is there to use either. For Prestonpans, all TPE 802 drivers are instructed to run using diesel due to the Power Supplies in this area not being stable enough to support any more electric trains.
