New Avanti Contract: speculation, predictions and possibilities

[Tobberz]

I'm sure this has been talked about before, but do we suppose that HS2 will be operated along the lines of "Avanti High Speed" to compliment "Avanti West Coast"? Less clear now because of the whole GBR debacle, I suppose.

It might get a catchy or rather uncatchy brand name, but I suppose a variant based on the Southeastern High Speed brand is another option.

My guess would be an eventual absorbtion of LNWR and not a great deal else as the trains will already have been refurbished/replaced
