The Tale of the Blue Pullman
Hello! :D
Once one of Britain's most luxurious express trains, the Blue Pullman comprised a series of fixed rake sets that operated across the Midland and Western Regions of the British Railway network, and were, at the time, one of the most opulent forms of travel for commuters journeying between Birmingham, Bristol, Manchester and London.
Sadly, for everything the Blue Pullman did right, it did two things wrong, not through any fault of the trains themselves, but instead poor management, timetabling and rostering for these lavish trainsets, seeing their working lives cut short after only 13 years.
