The Alton Observer

Pathfinder's Alton Observer was run in conjunction with the RCTS. The train carried enthusiasts for the Watercress Line and day trippers to Winchester.  50031 and 50049 provided motive power from Sheffield to Victoria via the recently resignalled Bedford to Bletchley route and back from Alresford to Sheffield.

50031 and 50049 wait for the complete complement of crew against the famous wall at Sheffield Midland.
