Passing Earley On Time
73963 and 73962 worked 1Q54, the 19:58 Reading - Tonbridge West Yard test train past Earley bang on time on the evening of 29 August 2024. Earley station now serves the heavily populated south-eastern suburbs of Reading but when it was opened in 1863 the area was still open countryside, unlikely to provide the railway with much business.
