The Tale of the Blue Pullman

Follow

For my last video of 2020, this is a reupload of my original Blue Pullman documentary from January, now with a shortened length, and updated to include the introduction of the brand new Midland Pullman HST set by Locomotive Services Limited, a scheme which hadn't been announced when I released the original.

The Blue Pullman was a fixed rake set of luxury trains 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 through poor management, timetabling and rostering for these lavish trainsets, seeing their working lives cut short after only 13 years.
