Heading towards Sheffield we have just crossed the freight only Chapel Milton viaduct and are joining the Hope Valley route, under the watchful gaze of the two spotters on the bridge. Our class 108/104 'Merrymaker' is heading for the Flower Parade at Spalding and this freight only line was one of three that we traversed that day. This little freight only spur over Chapel Milton viaduct between Chinley South Junc and Chinley East Junc was closed on 27/2/1966 and lifted only to be restored to use again on 14/12/1980. 4th May 1985 Andrew J Crowther.

The last of the Newton Heath allocated 'White Stripe' with red buffer beam liveried class 104 BRC&W dmu's - DMCL M53524 - makes a smoky departure upon leaving what is now a totally unrecognizable Manchester Victoria with a service for Blackpool North. These units with a White Strip down the body side indicated that they had modified suspension for fast running on express services to Blackpool, which probably meant very little when i took this with the influx of class 150 'Sprinter' new builds. 18th May 1985 Andrew J Crowther.

A sad end for burnt out Newton Heath allocated Class 104 set 53467 + 53519 which was withdrawn in April 1985. DMCL 53519 is nearest the camera in the old steam shed sidings at Springs Branch in June 1985. The whole set was later covered in plastic sheeting, presumably due to asbestos contamination.
