Perth

25 March 1967 and the epic 'Scottish Region Grand Tour No. 1' has reached Perth. Its two diesel locos have been replaced by A4 no. 60009, piloted by 44997, one of Perth Shed's trusty Black Fives. Two locos were necessary as the load was 18 coaches and the subsequent run to Aberdeen included a hair raising 80mph through Stonehaven!
