46115 "Scots Guardsman" and 30777 "Sir Lamiel" at Byfleet & New Haw on the 09-07-2010

The 09-07-2010, 43 years to the day since Southern steam ended and yet two steam trains come along less that ½ hour apart!

First we see Royal Scot 7P 46115 Scots Guardsman with West Coast Railways 47,760 on the rear, working The Railway Touring Company's "The Dorset coast Express from London to Weymouth and return.

Secondly we 30777 Sir Lamiel and West coast Railways 47,245 hauling Steam Dreams "The Cathedrals Express" from London to Swanage and return.

We then make a quick visit to see a preserved Vehicle that not many people know exists! It's Pullman car "Malaga" which is hidden on a plinth at the back Shepperton Station, in Ian Alan Limited's office complex.
