Another view of ex-GWR 2-6-0 No 6368 and ex-GWR 0-6-0 No 2246 on the LCGB Rail Tour at Fenny Compton. Commencing at London Waterloo station, the special ran to Reading General before taking the Didcot avoiding line to Oxford, followed by Banbury, Woodford Halse, Woodford Junction, Byfield and then Fenny Compton. The two locomotives then went forward to Stratford-on-Avon Old Town before taking the former GWR route to Worcester Shrub Hill via Long Marston, Honeybourne and Pershore. The tour then continued with ex-LMS 4-6-0 No 45552 at its head for a tour of the West Midlands before arriving at Cheltenham Spa Lansdown Road where ex-GWR No 7005 took the train forward to Paddington via Gloucester South Junction, Standish Junction, Kemble and Swindon.
