Cheers, was the BG branded the same as the rest of the rake?

Thank you for your replies, so the rake was mostly a mix of Mk 2D and Es?

Hello everyone, It's been a good few years since I have posted on this forum, but I was wondering if you could still assist me with something? I'm looking for some information on the Mars 'Celebrations' promotional train. Specifically I'm interested in knowing what coaches were used in the...

I'd suggest M1-M18 and catch the A1 near Doncaster. There has been a few works on the M1 recently, but along your route you'll only find them near Northampton. They only go on for a few junctions and if you travel at the right time they aren't too bad. The A1 out of London through Stevenage...

I went to see 'It' yesterday afternoon, great film. Story really well done (well it would be, it's Stephen King!), the effects were great, quite dark but also funny in places. Would rate it 8/10

Nice one, cheers pal!

Hi all, Earlier today as I drove under the bridge at Langley Mill station I looked in my rear view mirror just in time to see the New Measurment Train run through. Of course because I was in the car I didn't catch any numbers. Can anyone help me please with what power cars and coaches formed...

After having such a great year in 2015, 2016 has been a mixed bag for me. I've had some highs, and unfortunatly a lot of lows. Fell in love and had my heart broken, twice. Been under imense stress at work on multiple occasions. I've strengthened existing friendships and created new ones. I've...

I was shocked to hear of her death. As a massive fan of Star Wars I found it difficult to beleive. I know she was seriously ill in hospital following her heat attack but somehow I thought she would pull through and that Grim would not get his hands on her. Sadly I was wrong, and sadly 2016 has...
