Following yesterday’s announcement of a HST joining the One: One Collection, the museum has released an update.
Yesterday, The One: One Collection had announced that Ex-LNER Class 43 HST Power cars, 43006 (43206) and 43112 (43312) and their respective coaches had joined their collection.
They also said that the HST set would join the Midland Pullman HST in hauling trains out of London St Pancras.
Today, however, The One: One Collection has released the following statement:
“The One: One Collection apologises for inaccuracies in the original post, which gave incorrect information about specific powercars having joined the collection. This was due to a misunderstanding, and there was no intention to mislead.”
They have also confirmed in the update that it is indeed the Midland Pullman-liveried HST that will join the One: One Collection.
Here is the full statement released by The One: One Collection:

What happened to the yellow fronts to make them more visible?
As far as we are aware a yellow front is no longer a requirement, as long as it has been fitted with new specification lights, which are much brighter than before.
It’s a massive shame that the LNER Set will not join them. Hopefully it will and they just accidentally announced it early.
