    Wonderful film! First day of the summer holidays in 1967, my dad took me trainspotting at Hayes & Harlington Station to watch the Westerns roar through at speed. He said they sounded like Spitfires taking off! Just dad and me, a lovely sunny morning and still recalled as one of the best days of my life . ❤

    When I was a kid, I used to watch these engines going full tilt through Ealing Broadway station.

    I was delighted to read in a railway publication that towards the end of the Western, there enthusiast following ie the Bashers would all chip in together to charter a train. One way of getting that extra milage. Fabulous.

    They did not run exclusively on the western region. I drove many to and from Birmingham new street in the 70s from Paddington.
