A vintage British Pullman train, dating back to the 1920s and owned by Belmond, recently traversed southeast London, specifically Bickley Station, on its journey to Kent. Pulled by the 70000 Britannia locomotive, the train featured refurbished art-deco carriages that provide diners with a luxurious nostalgic experience reminiscent of early 20th-century travel. The Britannia locomotive, built in the 1950s, has historical significance, including famously transporting King George VI's funeral train in 1952. This journey is part of Belmond's Golden Age of Travel by Steam experience.
