CAPTION:
In the end, both teams got together when it turned out that one team alone probably wouldn't be able to pull the train...
Two teams of 10 personnel from RAF Benson will be competing against each other to pull a train along the Wallingford to Cholsey Heritage Line in the fastest possible time, starting at 10.30am. The teams, representing the Puma Force and 28 Squadron respectively, will take turns to pull the 50 tonne train for one mile, with the fastest team winning. They will be raising money for the RAF Benevolent Fund
