Two Rolls-Royce powered Cravens sets seen at Entwistle on 28/4/68, one with mechanical transmission (Class 112) and one with hydraulic transmission (Class 113, on the right). Accrington is thought to have just one of the former at this time (51704/51729), the other sets were now at Cricklewood and this set would move there in June. George Woods.
