Nice shots Calum like the shot off Sir Nigel 8-) Someone told me that Network rail are looking at putting metal bars across the windows on charter trains due to people leaning out to far and Flailing or ban hertiage traction :o

Cheers James :)

I'm sure Intercity put bars on their charter train windows in the late 80's/early 90's. I don't know why they took them off but I'd soon rather have metal bars fitted then have Heritage Traction banned.

They did have bars on them. It was pointed out that emergency escape was comprimised by the bars.. as one of the escape routes was the door windows..
