Initially the service
operated out of Waterloo Station calling at Southampton, Bournemouth and
Weymouth but was later amended so that it terminated at Bournemouth West.
This Hornby Bournemouth Belle pack features a BR Britannia Class locomotive,
"Alfred the Great", plus three 12 wheel Pullman Cars simulating part of the
service as it would have been seen in the early 1950s. An additional pack
containing three further 12 wheel Pullman cars is also available to extend
the train. |
