3117 inaugural train - round the bend

Post by John Ashworth »

A beautiful sight as all 12 of FOTR's operational passenger vehicles stretch out behind 3117 on the balloon at Pyramid South. Seven suburban coaches, three main line, the regional manager's saloon and the caboose were all handled with ease by 3117. On this occasion we went round the balloon the opposite way to normal, presumably for the convenience of photographers, for whom there was a run past.
