Pause For Thought
Hawksworth GWR class 94XX no.9466 attracts an admirer in the footbridge at West Ruislip as it pauses for water on 1Z67 11:58 West Ruislip to Princes Risborough 'The Dennis Howells Memorial Train' on 20th October 2018. A week prior to the charter came the news that Nigel Dobbing, head of mainline steam charter company The Railway Touring Company had also passed away. LNER class A4 no.60009 'Union of South Africa' was also out this day with an RTC charter from Ealing Broadway to York and also carried a wreath in his memory. A poignant day for those of us that are still able to enjoy sights such as this, remembering two people who were instrumental in getting mainline steam to where it is today.
