Railway Herald
The sounds of the race commentator and the excited crowds of punters drift over from Newbury Racecourse on Gold Cup day as this Branch Line Society railtour eases through the raceday platform line (aka the Down Goods Loop on other days), adding another occasional-use section of track to its inventory of unusual places visited on the day - 2nd December 2017. The train is top n tailed by WCR Class 47 locos, with No. 47760 in the lead and No. 47245 at the rear on this sector of its meandering itinerary.
