The 'Alloa Alloer' railtour
24th August 2008 to 26th August 2008

Some pics taken on board the Alloa Alloer railtour from Bristol to Scotland. Lasting 30 hours, we headed to Scotland via the East Coast, then via Millerhill and over the Alloa line, before stopping at Glasgow. It was then a fast trip back down the West Coast, for an 0100 arrival in Bristol.
