Hawick [2nd]
Captain Chris Smith checks out the plaque that he has just unveiled at Hawick Leisure Centre on 30th November 2018. The centre stands on the site of Hawick Station. <I>The Jellicoe Express,</I> which ran between Euston and Thurso, was the longest rail journey in Britain and operated during both world wars transporting mail and navy personnel. It is being commemorated with a series of plaques. Hawick, on the former Waverley Route, was a station where the Express called in one direction for coal and water and now is the only Jellico location that no longer has trains.
