Comment by Terri Alan on June 15, 2015 at 10:30: Is this the actual train, my great grandfather drove this if it is!

Comment by Alexander Smith on June 17, 2015 at 21:51: Yes Hugh, the train was heading North maybe a few minutes after leaving King's Cross. It left at 10.00am (I know because the BBC filmed the trip & I've watched it on "iplayer").
