Liverpool Street
Multilingual announcements echo around Liverpool Street station as the Hook Continental boards on Sunday 23rd October 1977. This train ran non-stop to Harwich Parkeston Quay to connect with the evening ferry sailing to the Hook of Holland. Station tannoys down the line would soon be blaring urgent warnings to 'stand clear of the platforms as a fast through train is approaching'. Driven flat out on a top priority passenger express, Class 37s became transformed into something quite frightening... even for seasoned observers.
