Allerton ETD, Mid 70's thanks to the "60A" collection

Yorkshire Engine's 02001 at Allerton. These shunters ended their BR service in the Liverpool area although many survived in industrial use and now preservation.

Luton Midland Road, 100878 thanks to Brian Daniels.

Classic 70's Luton, the South Box, yard and workstained 45108 on a down service

Rotherham Masboro, 300983

Many claim this is the "real Rotherham"! Masboro station closed with the opening of Central in the late 80's and deprived us of a top freight spot. A grubby 56025 drags 2 31's South presumably for battering

Crewe ED saw large numbers of "roarers" gathered prior to dispatch for the final cut. Former Willesden ECS machine, Longsight transformer and WCML mixed traffic machine 83009 awaits the final call

The unique Provincial liveried 47 in 47475 heads back to Crewe after working an early morning booked drag

Dorridge 230409 thanks to "Red Cow"

"hard hat liveried" 47749 and 47739 look good with 6Z48 Burton-Dollands Moor

Some "K" frothing nicely on departure from Nuneaton with a special to York

Hemel, 280409

4L92 continues to get a classic pairing, 86639 and 86613 pass Hemel with motors whining mournfully

58033 and 58034 in "TSO" livery are an unusual sight in the consist of an Eastleigh-Wembley "speedlink". The "bones" were Wembley then bound for the continent via the Channel.

Classic early evening sun at Ledburn as 90019 takes the 1730 Birmingham-Euston South at speed

Wolverton, 290409 thanks to Andrew Chambers

67010 with 5Z32 Wembley (Chiltern) – Wolverton via Coventry ECS

Gen snippets…
