leslie10646 Posted July 9, 2023 Share Posted July 9, 2023 (edited) This is British India Line, 35018 departing Brookwood (where I alighted this evening) with the "End of Southern Steam" railtour which she had just brought up from Weymouth. It is EXACTLY 56 years to the day that the last service train hauled by a Bulleid Pacific departed Weymouth. I saw that train departing Bournemouth! I was in a cafe having lunch - it wasn't expected to be steam at all! So my personal last service train with a Bulleid was the previous day. Never mind - if you had told me in 1967 that in 2023 I would be travelling behind one of the Blessed Oliver's locos I would have sent you to see a good doctor, yet, here we are! Enjoy! Incidentally, she is the SIXTIETH Bulleid Pacific I have ridden behind. BEWARE, it's nearly 200Mb, so first time you watch, it'll probably pause a couple of times while it continues the download - after you've got through once, just start it again and it'll go through non-stop! Lovely sounds! BIL at Brookwood.mp4 Edited July 9, 2023 by leslie10646 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
