FOLLOWING up on your‘Castles Centenary’issue (August), on September 10, 1967, along with my friend NeilTreadwell, I joined the GMRS special from King’s Cross to Newcastle and return. The outward journey was with No. 4472 Flying Scotsman and its two tenders, with No. 7029 Clun Castle doing the return honours as far as Peterborough, where a BrushType 4 (Class 47) took over.
