Happy memories...
I first bought a copy of 'Western Memories' back in 1977 when it came out, it was subsequently lost in a house move much later but I picked up another copy on ebay, equally as tatty as the first but much loved all the same.
The 'Western China Clay' ran on a freezing cold 4th December 1976 from Paddington to Cornwall and back, one of the best railtours ever run as many hydraulic fans will probably agree. The locos involved were D1023 Western Fusilier and D1056 Western Sultan, and 10 days after working the tour D1056 was withdrawn.
