I bet the seats are loads more comfortable in the old Mallard.

I bet this beautiful steam train never needed a Replacement bus service.

My home is near the Severn Valley Steam Railway in Worcestershire There's no buses on Sundays so I often get the steam train to/from the mainline in Kidderminster Incidentally, Arley Station has been in loads of films. Most recently in the opening sequence of Enola Holmes

Reminds me of Eddystone Lighthouse, the 1970s band. They need updating too. But Love Grows.

Looks like it already *has* been updated. (It's a rebuilt Bulleid West Country: designed for the Southern Railway with a number of 'interesting' features. British Railways got sufficiently fed up they rebuilt a lot of them, not too long before they withdrew steam completely.)
