    I wonder what is the most unusual motive power on a railtour, maybe this one, The L.C.G.B.- S.E.G. Vulcan Vantrain 15-3-86
    It featured haulage by 2 Class 419 Motor Luggage Vans (or MLV) which were battery electric multiple unit vans, along various other traction notably 50025 Invincible,
    which at a later date was derailed outside Paddington Station and written off.
