Midland Railtourer - Day Three

This is a set of pictures taken on the third and final day of my Midland Railtourer adventure in 1983. 

The day started out at Banbury.  From there I went to Birmingham New Street, Leicester, Wellingborough and Derby before returning to Banbury.

Midland Railtourer - Day One

In August 1983 I had a three day rail fest around the Midlands using a Midland Railtourer ticket. 

As a gricer, this was terrific.  You got seven days of unlimited travel across a wide area of the Midlands for what was very little money.  Sadly, I could only use three of the seven days.
