44871 & 35028 CLAN LINE provide double steam delight at BATH

Two mainline steam specials does happen occasionally at Bath and this was one of those special days. The Railway Touring Company ran "The Bath & Gloucester Steam Express" originating at London Paddington, which had been postponed from February, and UK Railtours ran a special "Clan Line 50th Anniversary Pullman" from London Victoria to Bath and return. The latter train marked 50 years since 35028 made the first journey in preservation. The video includes the outward and return legs of both railtours. Unfortunately I deleted the sequence in error of 35028 passing Oldfield Park with the ecs to Bristol but have included a still image. I have included some of my wife's recording, particularly of Clan Line at Bath Spa.

    Yes, it has been out of action for a couple of years now but has now got plenty of new parts so hopefully she we keep running smoothly for the next few years.
