this 66095 and a 378 unit almost splitting points leaving Willesden TMD onto the down slow towards Wembley yard.

This is probably due to an error by the Wembley mainline signalman, as the route was set wrong. :doh

20030 'River Rother'+20064 'River Sheaf' pass through Toton Centre with a northbound MGR empties in June 1987. These two Cl.20s were the only ones painted in Brunswick Green livery with red solebars & carried the names only for a few months. When this photo was taken these locos were allocated to Tinsley TMD, Sheffield.

With reference to the 100 tonne TEA bogie tanks in the last photo. This photo shows Cl.47/0 passing through March station with 6M83 1818 MWFO COY Ipswich Yard - Ditton BOC during the summer of 1987. This train conveyed discharged tanks back to Ditton via Peterborough, Leicester, Nuneaton & the WCML. These 100 tonne tank wagons conveyed refrigerated liquid Nitrogen & Oxygen for Ipswich hospital.

Prior to the introduction of 2 car Cl.156 Sprinter units on the Norwich - birmingham New Street services in 1988 the old order was this:- Cl.31/4 departs Peterborough P5 with a Norwich - Birmingham New Street service in 1987. Photo taken from Spital road bridge next to Peterborough PSB. The train is on the Down Slow line. The train is formed of 5 Mk.2a/b/cs & a BG at the rear.
