    I have added another collection of Railtour photos given to me by Alan Costello, this time featuring the
    Merchant Navy L.P.S., Bullied Pacific P.S. & Southern L.P.S Western Trooper Railtour 16-10-71, which included trips behind M.O.D. Austerities at Bicester & Long Marston
    (apologies for quality of some of the photos-camera problems)

    Thanks for sharing these. Those Austerities certainly gave some good smoke effects. Wish I was there!
