Information

This Virgin Class 43 HST 'Lady in Red' train pack brings the vibrant red and black livery to your model railway layout, creating quite an impression as it moves around the tracks. This OO gauge locomotive model has NEM tension lock couplings and a 21-pin socket, so you can upgrade to HM7000 control when you are ready.

Virgin Trains won both the InterCity West Coast and InterCity CrossCountry franchises following privatisation of BR, commencing services under its Virgin branding in 1997. It inherited a variety of locomotives and rolling stock from BR, including InterCity 125 HST sets.

Class 43 power car 43093 had been named #York Festival 88# under BR, but was renamed #Lady in Red# in 1997, which it carried until 2003, while 43097 had been called #The Light Infantry# until 1990, but entered service with Virgin CrossCountry without a name. Painted in the company#s red and black livery, with white markings, both later became part of First Great Western#s HST fleet.
