Tony, I'm in Mid Wales (pretty much in the old Radnorshire, close to the border). <br /> <br />Regarding the HST power car numbers, these were a little more complex - 41001 and 41002 were the prototype pair (painted grey with a blue band at window height, and a very different nose design to the production version - 41001 survives at the NRM but 41002 went to the breakers in the 90's after extensive usage by the R&D department of BR). The standard production examples were Class 43. While numbered as sets rather than individual locos and stock, the prototype carried 252001, production sets carried 253xxx and 254xxx numbers (the main difference being the type and number of coaches).
