Chiltern route-learner 960014, Great Bourton 26/06/08

The Chiltern Railways class 121 "bubble car" 977873 (formerly W55022) heads towards Banbury. This presumably was a route-learning trip for Virgin Trains Voyager drivers in anticipation of re-routing when the West Coast Mainline is closed by NetworkRail possessions. By coincidence this was soon to be followed by the other 55022 - Deltic (ex D9000) Royal Scots Grey - see separate video.

Nice to see a Bubble Car out and about!
