The iconic Blue Pullman livery returned to Britain’s railways in 2020 when Crewe-based Locomotive Services Limited relaunched one of its HST sets in Nanking blue and white livery, comprising of powers cars 43046 and 43055 and nine Mk3 coaches. The livery was originally carried by BR’s Met-Camm luxury Pullman diesel train which operated from 1960 to 1973. Both power cars were previously operated by East Midlands trains and 43046 carries the name ‘Geoff Drury 1930-1999 – Steam Preservation and Computerised Track Recording Pioneer’, which is a contender for the longest name carried by an operational locomotive on Network Rail. The striking Pullman set is used principally on rail tours and charters.
