A few moments at ...... Horley

Friday, 30th August, 2002

Whilst on an airport run to Gatwick I took the opportunity to spend some time at Horley. Firstly a neat over bridge just to the north of the station then on to the station itself. On both my arrival and departure I missed some XC Virgin Voyagers which was a shame. But it was interesting to see the different version of the Gatwick Express, both the classic class 73 and DLV combination and the new "Darth Vader" units running.
