wombatofludham Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 On 30/03/2020 at 15:18, Rugd1022 said: A corker from the lens of Phil Clarke : the north end of Crewe station in late '72, 83 011 had gained its new Tops number in February while 84 008 was done in August.... Interesting picture, the AL5 on the left (E3085) still has the as built cab roof dome with drainage "slots" above the cab front and side windows, whilst the AL5 on the right (E3080) has the revised roof dome with the slots infilled and proper gutters added. Interesting comparison and shows that the Bachmann model was very well researched in modelling these differences. 4 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A report elsewhere suggests the last time before this that a class 87 propelled a DVT formation was on 22/12/2006 and the locomotive was also 87002.
