Saturday excursions to Portsmouth, 10th September 2011 (return)

43181 leads the return to Hereford, seen here at Crampmoor.
70000 leads support coach 35465 (Wolverton 1963) at Crampmoor, with the return "Pompey Pacific" to Taunton
A side view of 70000 in action. It has handrails on the smoke deflectors, reflecting its early 1950s condition, but has AWS and an air brake pump in this 2011 guise. Not all Britannias had the smoke deflectors removed in BR service days.
Study of crew members in the cab.
