Class 116 DMU at Cardiff Bute Road

Details

A Class 116 dmu (set C335, presumably 51140 + 59032 + 51153) in Cardiff Bute Road on July 17, 1981.

It seems incredible that this was an open station one mile from Cardiff Queen Street in the Welsh capital's centre. Even more incredible is the fact that nowadays there are 5 trains an hour here. In 1981 the train crew are sitting on the platform contemplating the squalour (and probably having a smoke).
