Fascinating stuff Duncan,that sounds like Aeroflot,a TV programme last year interviewed some ex pilots who admitted taking slugs of Vodka before take off to build up courage as their aircraft were under-maintained,on one occasion passengers had a whip round to buy aircraft spares to get them on their journey,stories are rife,the victorian railway carriage look does not surprise me one bit.
That car must be worth a fortune.
