Malcolm Root FGRA Railway Art Print featuring the Bristol Pullman.
Commuting in Comfort - The Blue Pullman Trains
The Blue Pullman trains were built by Metro-Cammell and introduced in 1960. Two sets were allocated to the Midland region while the Western region operated three. Together they brought together a level of comfort, speed and service as yet unseen on Britain's railways and they were a popular choice for high end businessmen and other high-value passengers. Named either the "Midland" or "Bristol Pullman" dependent on region, this set, he 'Bristol Pullman' has just emerged from Twerton Tunnel west of Bath.
In Malcolm Root's Diesel Railway Art Print, the sea wall at Dawlish is shown as both spectacular and treacherous. Warship diesel-hydraulic D832 'Onslaught' is seen battling the elements on its journey west.
Happily, the locomotive is one of two from the class of 38 to have been preserved.
