Hi all,

Got a query for anyone who remembers seeing this. I moved to Stafford in mid-1994 and for at least a couple of years (probably until privatisation) I clearly remember seeing selected regular express services into and out of Euston carrying Motorail vehicles. I remember some massive trains, even 14-15 coaches (including the DVT in between the FOs and the trailing vans! Or even the loco in between.)

I'm aware that up until the early 90s there were special Motorail services, but these were regular passenger trains.

Does anyone have any clear knowledge of which trains carried these vehicles and over what routes? Being 8yrs old in 1994, my memories are anything but clear

Many thanks!

Seb

I believe one such was The Clansman - London Euston to Inverness via Birmingham New Street.

one was from glasgow i had 90009 back from GlasCentral to Crewe it has 3 car vans on the rear

there used to be motorrail vans on the sleepers too the ramps still in at fort william

The ramp is still there/existing at Inverness too.
