B432 Charlbury 14 April 1984

The last passenger climbs aboard as Ernie Akers, the Charlbury stationmaster watches from the shadows on 14 April 1984. B432 (51412, 59522 & 51370) prepares to leave Charlbury with the 2A77 06:24 Great Malvern to Oxford service. Plenty of details for the modeller here. Note the missing grab rail below the driver's window and the crudely touched up patches on the yellow front end. The glass in the headcode box could also do with some repairs.
