#HighSpeedThursday #ScotRail #InterCity7 #HST 43163 departs from Haymarket, nearing her final destination on the rear of 1B78 11.01 Aberdeen to Edinburgh. Does this week's announcement of EMR's 222 lease extension mean these sets have slightly longer in service 🤞🤞 9/9/26

#HighSpeedThursday Neither shot is going to win photo of the year but i do like a record shot for haulages so here's #ScotRail #InterCity7 #HST 43037 at Haymarket & Inverness, our 3½hr ride to the capital of the Highlands aboard 1H17 13.32 Edinburgh-Inverness on 9/9/26

I think the reference to #highspeedthursday must refer to their initial (1970s!) purpose as high speed trains. In #intercity7 guise, surely they are #hopefullyspeedytrundlers?

#HighSpeedThursday Looking back to my recent trip to Scotland with @kingy69beard.bsky.social. We had this #ScotRail #InterCity7 #HST set from Dundee to Haymarket. 43028 & 43163 on 1B78 11.01 Aberdeen to Edinburgh seen departing from Haymarket station. 9/9/26

#HighSpeedThursday Dundee in the morning sunshine on Wednesday last week. Front & rear #ScotRail #InterCity7 #HST power cars 43182 & 43015, looking a bit worse for wear, working 1A77 08.31 Edinburgh to Aberdeen, our ride to Arbroath. 9/9/26
