1st October 1966
A six-car DMU formation in Blackpool North station on 1 October 1966. Closest is a two-car Cravens, the crest on the non-brake vehicle suggests this is a power car (and there is a hint of an exhaust on the roof by the pillar). A Cravens power car without any fillers on the no.2 bodyside means it is a Rolls-Royce powered vehicle. Alan Grange.
