What a great video, very interesting and informative. It's been years since I was at The National Railway Museum and i think it's about time I went back. I am 68 now and spent most of my working life on British Rail, they where very happy times for me. Thank you once again for a very interesting and well put together video. 👍🚂🚃
It'll be better when bigger crowds can be seen. My new Hornby Intercity Mk. 1 brake coach has arrived from ebay, while a Chocolate & Cream Mk. 2 Buffet Car (also of Hornby status) is on the way from Hattons. The Mk. 2 Buffet Car will join Rood Ashton Hall's Shakespeare Express coaching stock, and the Mk. 1 brake coach will be paired with a Chocolate & Cream Mk. 1 carriage. A pairing you don't normally see on a preserved railway. The Intercity Mk. 1 coaches came into use around the 1970s decade, about the same time as the HSTs were in use, on the main line. The coaches were either hauled by a Class 47 or 86 Electric Diesel. It was very rare for the Intercity Mk. 1s to be hauled by a steam engine on the main line. In the early 1990s, however, one GWR steam engine, City of Truro, was hauling 6 Intercity Mk. 1 coaches. It's a pity the livery isn't seen on any Mk. 1 coaches now. This is what I know about the Intercity Mk. 1 coaches.
