Class 105 DMU at London Liverpool Street

×

Details

Cravens in the Capital. Liverpool Street 12/09/86.

By late 1986 the class 105 Cravens built 2-car DMU fleet was in rapid decline with only a handful of operational sets in passenger service. Several Anglia Region examples had been down graded for parcels train use with seating removed and reclassified as DPU's (Diesel Parcel Units).

Seen here in London Liverpool Street station one such example a Cambridge allocated 2-car DPU set is seen waiting departure with 4H04 the 16.10 Parcels service to Cambridge. The train was booked one intermediate call at Harlow Town and was due into Cambridge at 17.33, no doubt a lively run on the mainline for the old girl.

Closest is 51293, the only one of the parcel vehicles not to have the top lamp position on the dome.
