Jennifer writes (with apologies to the Tatler and H&Q)...
The NRM arranged an excursion train on the 5th May for a Mr Raymond 'Ray' Towell, a long time servant of the railway.
Mr Towell retired on the 28th April from his most recent incarnation, at the National Railway Museum, where he provided 25 years service.
Renowned charter operator West Coast Railways laid on a special Pullman luncheon train for Mr Towell and his friends, hauled by two class 37s, which toured the East Riding of Yorkshire.
Amongst the guests were NRM supremo Steve Davies and RAIL editor Nigel Harris (pictured) who helped 'Ray' to mark the occasion in some style.
Mr Towell said 'I'll be back, Matey!".
Matey!
