    This is my Uncle who drove the last Golden Arrow. The picture was published in Lady magazine in December 1972.

    The caption in the magazine reads:

    The last Golden Arrow recently pulled out from Victoria for Dover, and the route was lined for miles by people waving farewell. many of the passengers reminisced over earlier days on the famous train, which has made the journey from London to Dover en route to Paris for 43 years, and is now to be sold.

    It must be admitted, however, that some of the glamour of the train passed with the steam locomotives that used to head it.

    Pictured here is Mr. George Langley, of Dover, driver of the last Golden Arrow.
