The Rail Charter Services HST formation was created in 2021 following the success of the ‘Staycation Express’ in 2020. It operated over the Settle and Carlisle line operating from Skipton to Carlisle and return from July 19-September 9 2021, and there are reports suggesting that the set could be used for services on the Central Wales line in the future. The train was maintained at Crewe while the initial repaint was carried out at Eastleigh Works.
