Description
In the days of open windows, join as we leave Perth for Dundee where our train reverses to cross the famous 3264 m/2.75 mile Tay Bridge. Stunning views as the train curves out of the station for the climb up to the bridge. Next we cross the Forth Railway Bridge, this time covered in sea mist, for the return run to Glasgow. Finally our run back to Crewe, ending another good Pathfinder Railtour....and we bought the Headboard !
