dvdlcs Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 Great picture of the Cravens (assuming 105 rather than the other one) unit in South Shields. With the b&w imagery, other than the livery on the train that picture could conceivably have been taken any time since their introduction (assuming 1950s). 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Trev52A Posted July 7, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted July 7, 2019 @ Davexoc & dvdlcs Two of the bins in my photo of the dmu in South Shields are black plastic, the others (the battered ones!) are metal. The original post quoted the date as 17th February 1981 For bin spotters, here's the same view taken on the previous day, 16th February 1981 (I was standing back a bit for this one) The back lane was between Porchester Street (on the left) and South Eldon Street. These buildings have since been demolished, as has the railway embankment. Today's metro line uses a different route into South Shields town centre.

RMweb Premium Northmoor Posted July 13, 2019 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted July 13, 2019 Not photographic masterpieces but three wintry DMU scenes scanned from my 110-format photos, taken as a teenager. The first two are from February 1985; first a Coryton service waits to leave Bute Road terminus in Cardiff. Having changed at Heath - walking from Low level to High Level, we arrived at Rhymney. Twelve months later I was visiting relatives in Hertfordshire; here's my Mum and young cousin at St. Albans Abbey, waving to the DMU as it burbles off back to Watford Junction. Nostalgia aside, the railway generally offers a more welcoming environment for passengers these days! I think this is what Sir Peter Parker had termed "The Crumbling Edge of Quality". 17 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Market65 Posted July 13, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted July 13, 2019 Here’s a two car 108 and a two car 101, in multiple, on the approach to Beverley North in cAugust, 1985. They are on a service to Hull from, probably, Bridlington, as opposed to Scarborough. Best regards, Rob. 12 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
