Description
Join us on this special 37 "Farewell Railtour" May 21st 2000. Note the number of large signal boxes and numerous semaphores on the route, as well a sidings long since lifted. Even open windows, at the time very popular, has been restricted so sounds of the locos are now limited. Enjoy tape 1 from my DVC collection.
