The Way We Were: Pendennis Castle 1974

            Forty nine years prior to visiting the Gloucestershire Warwickshire Railway (see previous Better Late than Never), No. 4079 'Pendennis Castle' is seen approaching Church Stretton on 6th April 1974, heading the return leg of 'Flying Scotsman Services' Great Western'  1Z25 Shrewsbury - Swansea charter. In 1977 the locomotive was sold to the Hamersley Iron Corporation in Western Australia, where 4079 was to spend the next 23 years before being repatriated to England.
