Description
Back to 30 years ago, April 1991 at King's Cross. It's a Sunday and several charter trains depart north, a MkI rake hauled by a class 91 (very unusual), a Generator 47 on another and a regular 47/8 on the last. Also seen are normal timetabled Inter-City workings with Valanta powered HST's and a class 91 MkIV set.
