'Hello... what's all this shouting... we'll have no trouble here...' A southbound service rolls into Hawick on 4 January 1969, the last Saturday of passenger sevices. On the platform is a group of protestors, complete with symbolic black coffin, addressed to Richard Marsh, then transport minister, which was sent south by train.
