Class 411 '4-CEP' Ghost train.

Some say that a ghost of a class 411 is sometimes observed running through Marden station late night on Sundays, it has passengers but no driver, it runs silently, and is in BR green, has anyone else heard about this or any similar incidents in the UK.

It would be interesting (particularly when the weather gets warmer) to spend a few hours on the station around the right time on a Sunday night to see if the ghost train passes through "on time" so to speak. Typically though, it would be cancelled that night.

Do you think it could be Gordon Pettit?
If you look on his twitter page he says he is bored in the sidings off the juice,he talks about the great escape and running fast to Portsmouth
I recon he slips out on Sunday night to get sone juice in his shoes and strech his bogies

OK
Been in touch with some of my Ghost Hunting friends and they are all interested

No one has heard of this phenomena either so I've got a feeling that we may be organising a Hunt sometime soon
