In 1979-1980 (from WTT Section CA) there was an 18.40 non-stop to Euston (19.16) SX, E595, 1A89 marked as Postal. There doesn’t appear to be a Down working, but the 19.00 Willesden (Carriage Siding No. 6 Road) to Rugby SX Parcels (4B14), D595, stopped at Hemel Hempstead 19.24-19.50.3A28 18:48 Hemel Hempstead to Euston non-stop SL 19:22 timed E700 in the timetable 6/3/67 to 5/5/68?
