Year Information: The Bournemouth Belle train service was first inaugurated by the Southern Railway in 1931 and operated until nationalisation in 1948 with the service being postponed during the Second World War. However, after 1948 the service was subsequently operated by British railways until withdrawal on the 9 July 1948. Initially the service operated out of Waterloo Station to Bournemouth Central but was later amended so that it stopped at Southampton before terminating at Bournemouth West. This Hornby Bournemouth Belle pack features a BR Britannia Class locomotive, “Alfred the Great”, plus three 12 wheel Pullman Cars simulating part of the service as it would have been seen in the early 1950s. An additional pack containing three further 12 wheel Pullman cars is also available to extend the train.
