Hello all ! Today I built an InterCity 125 In Minecraft.

Some information about the Train:
The InterCity 125 (originally Inter-City 125[1]) or High Speed Train (HST) is a diesel-powered high-speed passenger train built by British Rail Engineering Limited between 1975 and 1982. Each set is made up of two Class 43 power cars, one at each end, and a rake of Mark 3 carriages. The name is derived from its top operational speed of 125 mph (201 km/h). Initially the sets were classified as Classes 253 and 254.
As of August 2021, InterCity 125s remain in service with ScotRail, CrossCountry, Great Western Railway, and Network Rail.
In the late 1950s and early 1960s, the British Transport Commission (BTC) was modernising its rail network. It wanted to increase intercity speeds so that railways could compete more effectively with motorways. The government was unwilling to fund new railways and the BTC focused on increasing line speeds by developing new trains and modifications to the infrastructure. A team of engineers was assembled at the Railway Technical Centre in Derby in the early 1960s, to design and develop an Advanced Passenger Train (APT) capable of at least 125 miles per hour (201 km/h) incorporating many features not previously seen on British railways—such as tilting to allow higher speeds on curves.[2]
The APT project suffered repeated delays and in 1970, the British Railways Board (BRB) decided it was not sufficiently developed to modernise the railways in the short term and at the instigation of Terry Miller, Chief Engineer (Traction & Rolling Stock), the BRB authorised the development of a high-speed diesel train using conventional technology for short-term use until the APT was able to take over. An operational prototype was to be built by 1972.[3]
And that concludes the InterCity 125 In Minecraft, if u have any tips, tricks or requests, make sure to post them into the comments, and for now, fare-well !
