On 25th of May 2024 Simon's Train Adventures had heard that the Branchline Society were running another exciting diesel railtour, titled the Hanson Hanse, near where we live.
Simon is a big fan of Francis Bourgeois' videos in which he chases a railtour and has been very keen to have a go at this. So we started early and headed from Twyford to Reading to see the Hanson Hanse come dieseling through. Then, after spotting a pair of class 57s pulling the Cornish Night Riveria back through Reading, we hopped on a fast train to London and raced the railtour to King's Cross, overtaking it in Slough. It was a very exciting morning and we were very happy to see the train twice.
