It was once the cutting edge of metropolitan travel. For more than 50
years the vintage train has been in retirement. But now the
Prohibition-era engine is to ride the rails once again- to promote a
new TV series set in the glamorous 1920s.

Great photos. But 'engine,' 'steams,' surely train?????

Love to see some footage on YouTube.


If only we could get Sky or ITV to pay that much to restore the LTM's Q
Stock and run that around the network! :-)


Just need to come up with a suitable long-running drama set in that era.
