Special Steam Trains (1968 - 2005)

At 06.50hrs on a gloomy day in July, ex-L.M.S. 'Princess Coronation' pacific No. 6233, 'Duchess of Sutherland' speeds through Brookmans Park
station on a special steam charter. The train was officially billed as 'The Talisman' but interestingly the loco is carrying a 'Royal Scot' headboard,
a train she no doubt hauled on many occasions some forty years ago.
