The National Railway Museum in York, England is the largest railway museum in the world, responsible for the conservation and interpretation of the British national collection of historically significant railway vehicles and other artefacts. The Museum contains an unrivalled collection of locomotives, rolling stock, railway equipment, documents and records.
The prototype High Speed Train was the blue print that saved British Rail's Inter-City network. The HST project took tried and tested diesel technology and created a dedicated 125mph passenger train that delivered levels of comfort, reliability and regularity out of all proportion to the £800,000 investment it required. Since their introduction in 1978 most HST units have travelled the equivalent of to the moon and back in service miles and three years into a new century, and they're still going strong.
