Another HST question is there any HST power cars stored? and if so what are there numbers?

Cheers

Not really, they're all allocated to one operator or another and are generally rotated in traffic.

Full fleet list is HERE

Well the prototype power car is on static display in the Grand Hall at the NRM, all the others are in service.

Woah i must be missing something, i was only there the other month and can't recall seeing it (or was i too busy admiring Tornado in the workshop...)
Trust you to have a picture of it Paul

That is one weird looking contraption. I was at the NRM in August last year and dont remember seeing it. Although, I must admit, I wasn't quite 'in to' trains as I am these days.

I plan to go over the Easter holidays, so I will hunt it down and take some photos.

Stinking rotten things - the pollution they chucked out was something terrible.

And all the stuff steamers chuck out is great for the environment as well.
