Brilliant. Really does justice to what must have been an end of an era defining moment.

I'm gonna miss ooc. Best Depot in the UK!

[@D8059PRODUCTIONS]

I'm glad that OOC has been modelled in TSW2, if they didn't do that, OOC would be forgotten. It's a shame that HS2 has to take it from us.

its not fair, how can we be saying goodbye to one of the best trains on the uk rail network, not one of the best for 1970 or 1980 or even 1990, but one of the best ones for 2018. why is it we had to say goodbye to the HST fleet but still have to suffer those god aweful 150s 153s 158s 159s sprinters, super sprinters, all such like that and then have to pretend that the 800 even holds a candle to the 43. its just not fair. I wish that I could go back to the late 90s and enjoy the train all over again because Im just not ready to see it go, I had hoped that the castle class 43s would be held onto for many years as a bloody good replacement for those god aweful ones but now even that is being taken away
