Virgin trains through Harlesden

RailNews has produced a special free edition on the Great Franchise Disaster of 2012:

"Railnews managing editor Sim Harris said:

"When we went to press as usual on 28 September, the industry still thought First could take over West Coast on 9 December, although there was the great unknown posed by Virgin's impending hearing in the High Court.

As we now know, everything changed on 3 October, and we felt an extra issue of Railnews was amply justified to give more coverage of these landmark developments."

The new edition, called Railnews Extra, is available for unrestricted download as an PDF file."

By the way, today is the 60th anniversary of the Harrow rail crash.

Harrow council organised a commemoration at Harrow & Wealdstone station this morning, and a reception afterwards. There is an on-going exhibition in Wealdstone library, as well.
