Class 105 DMU at Singleton Bank

×

Details

One of a series of images credited to the LMR Mechanical & Electrical Engineers Department at Derby recording the aftermath of the collision on Singleton Bank (near Weeton) where a six-car DMU excursion struck the rear of a stationary ballast train on 16 July 1961.

This is image 19, captioned "Damaged rear vehicles of ballast train on left."

The cab of 50783 can be seen in the field to the left, the roof of 50808 above it, and the cab end of 51780 can just be glimpsed to the right of the crane.
