ScotRail's fleet of Fifty-four Class 43 HST power-cars were reliveried into a new Inter7City livery by Wabtec at the Brush Traction works in Loughborough.

The dark blue and pale grey 'Inter7City' livery features large silhouettes of landmarks in the seven cities of Scotland.

Before relivery, the power cars were in the plain blue livery of First Great Western.

In addition to corrosion repairs and a full repaint, other worked carried out on the power cars includes isolation of the Great Western ATP equipment, fitting Forward Facing CCTV cameras, and Traction Interlock (to work with refurbished slide-door carriages).

The 'Admitted' date is when the Loco (Power car) arrived at Brush Loughborough, the 'Released' date is when it departed from Loughborough.

As of December 2019, all 54 power cars repainted.
