In 1955 during an ASLEF strike my Brother and I travelled from Paddington to Newton Abbot in a double headed train.(NUR drivers obviously) We had a holiday booked so had to go. The train had about twenty coaches on and took ten hours. Full and standing all the way, stopping at every station. We sat in a smoke filled compartment with a load of sailors. You probably don't believe it but I swear it's true. John.
