May 1972

Vehicle: 50454   

In the May of 1972 we were lucky enough to go on a school field trip to Colwyn Bay, in my final few months at junior school :) Even luckier for me, the boarding house was a few yards from the North Wales coast main line! Class 40s galore in 1972! Unfortunately, I was still using my primitive Kodak Brownie which wasn't much use for action photos [see my attempted Class 40 shots in the Comments section below]. However, in this instance, it looks like the DMU was stationary! The driver's door is open so I'm guessing the train had been signal-stopped and he'd gone to phone the signalman! So sharp I can just make out the leading coach as M50454 :) The boarding house has been swept away by the A55 now. Chris McKee.

A Class 108 DMU in Colwyn Bay station on 26 May 1987. Colin Brooks.

circa 1978

A DMU formation of at least six-cars (105, 105, maybe a 108) at Colwyn Bay. Date unknown, the slide process date was June 1978. With Accrington is the destination blind and the leading set being a power-twin this is probably a working to/from the Manchester area. Stuart Mackay Collection.
