i really do struggle to see this mystical appeal of the 37. each to their own i suppose. anyway thanks for the pictures.
good to see those supersaloons under cover. i am really rather fond of them.
and Tiny! i believe ifs the only surviving complete broad gauge loco! the iron duke has some origional parts i believe.
I am a bit dubious of the "titanic ocean liner special ticket"
The titanic left from Southampton and not from plymouth. i have no doubt that the LSWR ran specials to southampton terminus or even the ternminal itself. but i cant imagine why the GWR would be running one.
also it says "issued onboard white star liner titannic". if that was the case then surely if it was to be a GWR ticket then it would be the other way round. to plymouth from london. presumably at the time it was quicker to use the fast one to waterloo and cross london to get an express to plymouth?
