      Served in a GWR Shirtbutton printed bowl with GWR cutlery to boot whilst sitting in the dining car. Passing the dark Devon countryside-the odd light seen from the carriage window, whilst the Castle works hard up towards Marley Tunnel then Brent and beyond! I'm almost there!

      It went for over £80 when you can buy direct from CSP for 30.More money than sense me thinks.
