Class 47 Great Western Express [ATTACH]
From "This is Paddington" by John Vaughan, published in 1982
Headlights were not mandatory on British rolling stock until the mid 1980s when older stock was retro-fitted with yellow square headlights. There...
Great Western Express would be ideal, particularly as charter train operator West Coast Railways have a base at Southall. There were regular...
Slough, about 100 yards from the GWML. My daily commute (when not locked down) takes me on both the Great Western Express and Bakerloo Line routes.
I'm reminded of a Jimmy Carr joke "I grew up in Slough in the 1970s. If you want to know what Slough was like in the 1970s, go there now."
Class 465s are all 4 car. The 2 car version is Class 466.

Some archive footage of Paddington Station (and its spotters) in 1975 [MEDIA]

I just used Excel and took a screen grab.
Really? I had no idea. Great minds think alike!

I have to say I feel that DTG do a fairly good job on communication. By following the roadmap and announcements I'm able to keep on top of what's...
So according to XBox store I own TSW2020, West Somerset, Rapid Transit and NEC New York. I've never bought TSW2020, only played it on Game Pass,...
Thank you for your reply.

Anything on the Western Region of British Rail from the 60s, 70s or 80s would be great. Personally I would like to see the Swansea to Carmarthen...
Gloucester to Birmingham, Swindon or Cardiff would be great.
