Year Information: The “Talisman” was the successor to “The Coronation” which was cancelled due to the outbreak of the Second World War. Inaugurated on the 17 September 1956, “The Talisman” operated between London Kings Cross and Edinburgh Waverley on a twice daily service which unsurprisingly became known as the morning and afternoon Talismans. Each “Talisman” Great British Train pack includes a numbered limited edition certificate of authentication and with the addition of the extra coaches a truly impressive train can be compiled.
