45231 On "The Queen Of Scots" - Private Charter

London Midland and Scottish railways black 5 number 45231 "The Sherwood Forester" is seen departing Dumbarton Central Railway station with a private charter on the 6th of July 2011. The locomotive is hauling the rake of vintage coaches given the set name of "The Queen Of Scots." The rake includes:

WCJS Observation Car No. 41 -- built in 1892
GNR Family Saloon No. 807 -- built in 1912
LNWR Dining Car No. 5159 -- built in 1891 (oldest dining car in the world).

The train is heading for Oban, where the steamer will detach and the "Queen of Scots" returned by a diesel class 37. The train headcode is 1Z42.

Feedback appreciated.
