Class 119 DMU at Bristol Marsh Junction

×

Details

An image (6 of 24) from a British Transport Films Filmstrip named "Coupling Procedure Diesel Multiple Unit Trains" probably taken at Bristol Marsh Junction circa early 1971.

The accompanying notes describe "Sets buffered up for coupling. Star on solebar indicates release cord for vacuum cylinder". The 119 has the star in this place as the vacuum cylinder is fitted to the front of the bogie.

The 119 on the left has a brake overhaul date painted on the solebar (B.O. 5.11.70), the 120 on the right (which has the brake cylinders fitted on the underframe in the centre of the vehicle) has the paint date (30.9.70) on the solebar.
