On this Day in History - Cardiff – 6th August 1970 The family holiday in 1970 was to Barry Island, South Wales The family holiday was the one time in the year that I would have a day out on the railways with my Dad in tow. He was not the slightest bit interested in railways but always felt that this was the time to take a more direct interest in my hobby and spend a day with his son. The year before it was a day on the Ffestiniog Railway and this year I had already dragged him round the graveyard of steam before we set out for an afternoon at Cardiff and this is what we saw that day. Barry – Cardiff Class 08 (3759, 4012), class 35 (7095), class 37 (6881), class 45 (127) Cardiff Canton MPD (86A) Class 08 (3256/68, 3429, 3749, 3807/16/17/18, 4011), class 14 (9509/19/35), class 35 (7055/56/57/69/76/81/83/87/88/94), class 37 (6606, 6875, 6976/81/94), class 47 (1583/90, 1830, 1907/23/34/35), class 52 (1069) Cardiff General Class 08 (3261), class 35 (7007/67/92/96), class 37 (6885, 6909/70/75/77/78/82/95), class 46 (150), class 47 (1591, 1600/65/68), class 43 (855), class (1004/25/38). Cardiff – Barry Class 35 (7078), class 47 (1901/04/15/19). Locomotives of note are the three class 14’s which had all been withdrawn almost two years previously in October 1968 (9509/19) and December 1969 (9535). 9509/19 would not survive much longer as within three months they had been towed to G Cohen’s yard at Kettering and broken up in November 1970. 9535 was sold to the National Coal Board for further use in the North East and would survive until January 1984. A number of the above were photographed later in life and can be found in this collection.

For my 11th birthday in March 1967 I was allowed to go on the train from Nottingham to Crewe for the first time. The Cravens three car DMU from Nottingham was routed via Chaddesden and I saw my first class 40 in one of the yards. It was the only time I ever went that way or saw a passenger service take that route.
