Remarks & Notes |
Bulleid Pacific "Holland Afrika Line" speeds through Eastleigh with an up express to London Waterloo.
The South Western Division was the last route for high speed express steam in the UK. It was not unusual for Bulleids to run at over 100mph, especially during the final days before electrification in 1967. |
