{"product_id":"inter-city-125-high-speed-train","title":"Inter City 125 High Speed Train","description":"The Inter-City 125 was the brand name of British Rail''s High Speed Train (HST) fleet, which was built from 1975 to 1982 and was introduced into service in 1976. The Inter-City 125 train is made up of two Class 43 power cars, one at each end of a set of carriages (the number of carriages varies by operator). The train operates at speeds of up to 125mph in regular service, making it the fastest diesel-powered train in the world, a record it has held from its introduction to the present day. After four decades, most of the HST fleet is still in front-line service, with various UK train operators., This fascinating Manual looks at the evolution and anatomy of the Inter-City 125, along with details of the operation and servicing of the trains, views from drivers, and details of how the trains were modernised for the 21st century., Author: The 125 Group was formed in 1994 by a small group of enthusiasts to provide a focus point for information and news regarding the Inter-City 125. It has grown into a preservation organisation, restoring and now operating prototype HST power car 41001, owning and operating a small fleet of Mk 3 coaches and still providing a high quality quarterly magazine.","brand":"MediaPlace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57316487168382,"sku":"NW9781785212666","price":21.22,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1379\/1261\/files\/9781785212666.jpg?v=1778718927","url":"https:\/\/mediaplace.com\/products\/inter-city-125-high-speed-train","provider":"MediaPlace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
