I saw a HST set passing North Acton station on the Central Line on a single track line heading towards to the GWML. And i was just wondering what it was doing passing there and where it came from? Thanks Chris (CCF23)

I saw one last month passing Hangar Lane, but I don't know why...maybe to reverse sets maybe?

Do you know which way First Class was?

If at the London end then it might be on its way back to OOC/Paddington after turning the set around, since they do that by running outwards via the Greenford FGW line

The Greenford loop is used to turn sets that are in reverse formation. Same applies to Swansea and Laira triangles.
