E50004; Sheffield, January 1967. E50004 was the first DMU to be painted at Doncaster in rail-blue livery; the double-arrow symbols were painted by hand. BR produced a Design Manual when the double arrow was introduced, and this showed that the double arrow always faced forward when displayed on a ship's funnel. The paintshop at Doncaster mis-interpreted this, thinking that - as with the original BR crest - the arrow should always face the front, and so E50004 emerged from Doncaster incorrectly liveried on the driver's side. I don't know how long this remained before being corrected. David Faircloth.
A green Class 104 DTC surrounded by blue vehicles - which probably makes it circa 1968-70. At Sheffield Midland. Tony Wilkins.
A Met-Camm DMU with NE50150 closest seen departing from Sheffield. The notes with the negative, taken by HC Casserley, had 1964 yet the centre car is in Rail Blue (with painted window frames and 3" numbers) which dates it to a few years later. Stuart Mackay Collection.
A Class 110 set at Sheffield, with 52083 closest. Undated, but as the other two vehicles in the set and the Met-Camm alongside are in blue this was probably taken in the late 1960s. Stuart Mackay Collection.
A Cravens DMU in Sheffield Midland in Autumn 1969. I had just travelled back to Sheffield from Thorne on this Cravens BR Blue dmu & was climbing the footbridge stairs when this composition offered itself. Pete LG99.
A Class 148 at Sheffield Midland in the late 1960s. Later known as a Class 114 DTC(L), this vehicle was classified as Class 148 at the time this slide was taken - believed to be late 1960s due to the presence of green liveried vehicles. Unusually, it lacks the yellow line above the first class accommodation, although window stickers are visible - it is unlikely to have been declassified by this early stage. Graeme Phillips Collection.
