THE ARCHIVE FILES > Archive-1978 > 13. Eastern Region Railrover-27.05-02.06.78
During the spring half term week, my friend Simon Petrameredies and I undertook and Eastern Region Railrover. The main aim was to get as much Deltic haulage in as possible and to explore as much of the Eastern Region as possible. Unfortunately, I took very few pictures due to being a cash-strapped schoolboy. We stayed at various Youth Hostels that were all pre-booked by my mum and me. I copped so many new locomotives and had a throughly great time!
