Something A Bit Different...
Day 2 - 1Z25 07:26 Euston to Marchwood MoD
A rare sight as GB Railfreight Class 73s, 73201 "Broadlands" and 73136 "Mhairi" get ready to lead the GBRf 2021 charity railtour out of Euston at the start of Day 2.
This is part of my selection of photos from the GBRf Charity Railtours 2021 "This Time it's Personal" four-day railtour, which I was on throughout. The tour was raising money for Prostate Cancer UK, a disease that one of the three main organisers has been impacted by and hence the reason for the tour and its strapline.
This was also quite personal for me as my Dad has battled prostate cancer and his father (my grandfather) died of the disease before I was born.
Despite the well-documented challenges, this was an excellent tour with a significant sum raised for the charity. It was also announced at the end that it would be the last multi-day GBRf Charity Railtours escapade in this format for understandable personal reasons impacting the key organisers.
