A friend wants to take a photo of an IET (Intercity Express Train) at Westbury Station on Friday.   Has anyone got the data available of which trains are likely to be IETs and which will still be HSTs (High Speed Train)?   

Looking at the Westbury stoppers on the Paddington to Westbury / Frome / Taunton and beyond runs. And I suspect daylight hours please!

I'm guessing said friend's plans have been kyboshed by Network Rail.  Roll Eyes

Those times should be good for any weekday next week though.

He's asking about Sunday  Grin Grin

Appreciate times for next week - if you can easily tell for Sunday, that would also be appreciated and I will add "check ahead" I have also suggested he join the Coffee Shop  Cheesy

Sunday diagrams are notoriously difficult to pin down.

Sunday diagrams are notoriously difficult to pin down.

The following two* should be:

09.40 - 1A77
10:24 - 1C76

Couldn't see any others in the hours of daylight, though there may be more.

* Based on issued STP drivers diagrams for this Sunday
