 67005 'Queen's Messenger' brings up the rear of the British Belmont Pullman charter running as 1Z39, the 08.14 London Victoria to Runcorn approaching Roade in Northamptonshire. It was carrying race-goers to the Grand National who would transferred by coach on arrival at Runcorn station. This special runs every year and I cannot quite work out why it doesn't go any further towards Aintree or even directly there; the charter sidings still exist if a little overgrown!
