Default Re: Radio Exhibition Trains.

Slightly off-topic - apologies. But this idea did slightly re-appear in the 1980s. I remember climbing aboard the 'KP Adventure Express' with my sisters at Llandudno station, whilst on holiday in North Wales.

An exhibition train with a fake APT-esque nose cone featured activities based around their crisp brands, such as Skips and Discos. We shot from one particular carriage to the next on a slide, as a loose tie-in to KP Skydivers.

No radios, but lots of free bags of crisps!
