A very special day for the SR Merchant Navy Class, as possibly its most famous locomotive 35028 Clan Line hauled its first mainline train since July 2022, having just returned to steam after being away for a while undergoing repairs and acquiring a new boiler ticket. This was the 50th anniversary Pullman train that Clan Line hauled was in honour of it being 50 years when it pulled its first train on the mainline in preservation back in 1974.
Here is footage I captured of it today, first speeding past Andover Station, up to where it stopped at Salisbury Station for about 50 minutes to take on more water, as the train as originated from London Victoria Station earlier in the morning, before continuing its journey up to Bath Spa station in the afternoon. Thankfully the weather played nice for me and my Grandpa to see Clan Line today, and boy was it so worth it!
