  • The Dover Pullman Boat Express
    No. 7 - The Dover Pullman Boat Express First published in the Meccano Magazine July 1927 What the real name of the train is I could not say. For many years past the “Eleven o’clock” service from Victoria has been familiar to travellers all over the Continent but our train this month cannot rightly be called the “Eleven o’clock,” because it starts at 10:45! It is, in fact a first portion of the 11 a.m. train, designed to give its fortunate passengers the choice of places on the boat at Dover. Sometimes it is called the “Golden Arrow,” but that name belongs to the French express that runs in connection on the other side of the Channel, and which was described in the May article. The rudest name that I have heard bestowed upon the 10.45 down is that of the enginemen who, in joint recognition of the beautiful cream and umber livery of the Pullmans and the enormous weight of the train, have nicknamed it the “White Elephant.” It will be agreed that so famous a train as this needs a name of its own, and one day perhaps the Southern Railway authorities will think out some telling designation, to rank with the “Southern Belle” and the “Atlantic Express.” Meanwhile it is difficult to write an article of this character in description of a train without a name! 1 Popularity of the Train So far from being a “White Elephant” in reality, the 10.45 a.m. from Victoria is one of the best-paying trains on the line.
