Two wonderful Merchant Navy pacifics that are both still with us. To me their finest hour was on 24 July 1964, and I am posting this a few...
Having seen the photo of part of the 200 train I am now wondering if Mars is far enough away to avoid the graffited razzmatazz, so I'm now asking...

Referring the hon. gentleman to the answer I gave earlier, I would like to point out this current headline on the Spa Valley Railway website:...

The down mail, 22.35 Waterloo and up Mail, circa 22.13 Weymouth were those sort of trains. 2 or 3 passenger coaches and 3 or more bogie parcels...
