50764

Class 105 DMBS M50764 at Southport on 11 May 1974. Alistair Ness.
January 1979
With the paraffin tail lamp moved to the cab front of Motor Brake Second M50764, the Cravens Power-Twin prepares to depart from a Wintery Ormskirk with the 09.19 to Preston in January 1979. During this period the Newton Heath based Class 105s were not common on the Ormskirk Line, the Derby built Class 108s were the normal fare. The weather was a total surprise on that day, no snow on leaving Preston, the wintery weather started across Farington Moss and got progressively worse towards Merseyside. Martyn Hilbert.
18th March 1979
Cravens Class 105 Motor Brake Second M50764 leads a 2-Car power-twin into Rufford with a Preston to Ormskirk working on March 18th 1979. M50764 has a clean almost ex-works appearance. Waiting at the level crossing is Threlfall Haulage Bedford TK flatbed lorry, Registration number POD 654H dating from 1969. The shot is the wrong side for the light, but the gates were closed as I arrived and forced this view! Martyn Hilbert.
11th May 1981
A Cravens Class 105 Power Twin DMU with Driving Motor Brake Second (DMBS) M50764 at the rear, was hurtling downgrade at Hoghton with a Colne to Preston service on May 11th 1981. At the time, Hoghton was quite a rural location, with the former goods yard in use as an ex military vehicle sales dealer. The former Hoghton station, closed in 1960, was located beyond the level crossing. Today, the goods shed has gone, replaced by a housing, and the open aspect seen in this view has vanished - trees, unchecked lineside undergrowth and housing now being located on both sides of the railway. Martyn Hilbert.
50765
23rd June 1979
With the vintage Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway platform clock showing 3.08 pm, A Cravens Class 105 Power-Twin set, with Driving Motor Brake Second M50765 at the rear, had just arrived at Blackburn with a service from Manchester Victoria via Bolton and Darwen on June 23rd 1979. The paraffin tail-lamp had not been removed from the rear of the set, ready for the return working back to Manchester. Such services normally terminated in the West facing bay at Blackburn, but on that particular day a four-car DMU set was stabled in the bay, necessitating the use of one of the through platforms for the turnaround. Martyn Hilbert.
13th May 1981
The single line token exchange is about to take place, As a Cravens Class 105 Power-Twin formed of cars M50765 & M50804 arrives at Rufford with the 17.19 Preston to Ormskirk service on May 13th 1981. The Ormskirk services were normally in the hands of Derby built Class 108s and the appearance of a Cravens unit was not common. Martyn Hilbert.
50766
3rd September 1975
Barrow in Furness station on 3 September 1975. In the grey morning light, where I had just been decanted from the overnight train from Euston - an LMS design 12-wheel sleeper - hunted abominably on long welded rail, but rode beautifully once we'd turned off the West Coast Main Line on to jointed track at Carnforth. Cravens diesel multiple unit M50766 awaits departure at 7.10 for Preston, partnered with a Class 108 vehicle. Tom Burnham.
28th April 1979
Set: TY404
Cravens set TY404 (M50766 leading) is seen operating the 3.37pm (approx) Leicester - Birmingham New Street at Nuneaton on April 28th, 1979, with a Class 100 DMBS on the rear. Michael Mensing.
1st December 1979
With window bars fitted to the passenger doors - probably from its time allocated to South Gosforth - Class 105 DMSL M50766 is seen on Newton Heath depot on 1 December 1979. Brian Daniels.
50767
circa January 1958
An official image (Derby Works negative 58-234) showing the guard's van in a Cravens DMBS, presumed to be M50767. British Railways.
50768
23rd April 1966
A Cravens triple set working the 5.57pm Derby - Crewe service seen south of Harecastle Tunnel on 23 April 1966. A few items of note: there are two DMBSs; the leading car - thought to be M50768 - is missing the lining between the cab windows; and the very light coloured roof of the TSL centre car which as a 1 on the closest door. Michael Mensing.
2nd September 1967
This negative was noted as "the last train Nottingham Victoria", but I'm not sure how accurate that is. Taken on Saturday 2 September 1967 the station officially closed the Monday after so there was likely no Sunday service. The three-car Cravens - the closest number looks like it could be M50768 - would probably be on a working to/from Rugby. Stuart Mackay Collection.
2nd August 1979
50768 has Barrow on its blind, Lancaster Castle, 2/8/79. It had just worked in on the late afternoon from Windemere. Note the handrail in the inside of the cab door, used for climbing up from track level. Robert Frise.
50769
1975
A Cravens DMU on arrival at Rochdale in 1975, DMBS M50769 is closest. John Law.
50770
24th October 1964
M50770 is at the front of a 3-car Cravens set in Birmingham New Street on October 24, 1964. It is standing empty at the end of platform 8, probably forming the 5.28pm to Derby. Michael Mensing.
September 1975
A Class 105 power-twin (leading appears to be M50770) departs from Burneside station (on the Oxenholme - Windermere line) in late September 1975. Michael Mensing.
