9S53 and 9V59 were both HST certainly, 9S53 was the XC001 refurb set and 9V59 was an MML set with 43306/43285. Both passed me at Leeds within 2 minutes of each other this afternoon. 9S53 actually caused delay to my train (2W74) as it had been delayed back between Exeter & Tiverton. 9V59 also terminated Tiverton too.
Just seen my sister onto the 1540 from New Street (9V59 - 0900 ex GLC) which was the refurbished set. This seems to contradict the timings posted back in Oct earlier in the thread.
