Interesting move in Southampton area

[WessexWarrior]

Earlier on I saw a load of vintage coaches (Mk 1 and before, some of them looked 1930's or before?) crawling through Swaythling with 73136 on the front and an unidentified GBRF liveried 73 on the back...

Anyone got any ideas what this was?

That was the Wedding Special using the Queen of Scots Rake, heading to New Milton

73208 is in a similar (just for the pedants) livery to 73136, so I'll let you off.

Thanks for the info guys And my view was obscured by trees, so that's the reason for the mix-up

Yup - it was in the middle sidings at Bomo. Meanwhile I took my car to the depot and it had gone.

When I got to Clapham though about 2 1/2 hours later 73's Kristen and Lucy (or something like) that were in the yard. The coaches are stored permanently in Clapham carriage shed.

'twas the Pepsi Wedding special, indeed.

Ran about 40 mins late on the down, ran an hour late on the up I think.

Kirsten and Lisa... and that must be what I've seen in Clapham shed (the coaches).

Ran spot on time on the down, and early on the return!
