It arrived about 2.30am this morning and left around 10am.

No chance of internal pictures I am sorry to say but here are a few of it at Orton Mere awaiting departure.

Oh to have money, it was to put it mildly a long train. Just the kind of holiday I would enjoy, shame it’s a bit out of my range.

The normal service train was quite tame compared with this.
