Special visitor to the events was 67004, "Post Haste", which had been named at the Nene Valley Railway's TPO event only two weeks prior to this. The loco is seen attached to TPO 814 and BG 316. |
67004 with TPO 814 and BG 316 on the demonstration line. The weather was very poor on the Sunday and many people missed the 67 working this passenger train. It is worth noting that all three vehicles had been to the Nene Valley Railway at one time or another. |
Mail pouches inside 814 awaiting their next duty. |
One of the two BR Mark 1 TPO coaches which was on display during the weekend. This one being sorting coach (POS) number 80347. |
