67021, outward leg of the Belmond British Pullman, 11.03 London Victoria-Gillingham (1Y40, 1E), London Victoria station
The Belmond Pullman is a regular fixture of London Victoria
station and always occupies Platform two as seen here. As the crew prepares for the passengers to board the train dedicated Belmond 67021 idles on the rear of the charter. The train was an out-and-back charter running, rather unusually as 1Y40, which does not differentiate it as a special working. Leaving at 11.03 the appropriately dressed passengers would enjoy a slap-up lunch and later afternoon tea taking a return trip to Gillingham.
