A Harwich-bound class 104 DMU runs into Mistley station around 1970. The Edme factory, which is still there today, looks interesting, although is no longer rail-connected. Scanned from a slide taken by the late Roy Dixon, now in my collection. Kevin Lane Collection.
A 4-car class 104 approaching Woodlesford station heading towards Leeds circa 1970. The vehicle numbers appear to have been covered up by the flowery decorations. The Cravens class 105 page refers to a two-car Cravens and a 3-car Birmingham that were decorated in this way to publicise a Ken Dodd show that was on at Scarborough during the summer 1970 season. There was clearly a 4-car Birmingham class 104 that was similarly adorned. Les Plumb.
A dmu arrives at Buxton from Manchester in February 1970 on the LNWR route via Stockport Edgeley & Chapel-en-le-Frith. The white roof was a Buxton depot trademark. The tracks in the foreground led from the station to a junction on the line to Ashbourne by this time cut back to limestone quarries south of Buxton. The train is passing under the bridge which carried the branch line into the Up sidings. Pete LG99.

A four-car Class 104 DMU decorated for some school specials / publicise the Scarborough line. The style was from the Ken Dodd show - he was in Scarborough for the season and made an appearance on the trains. Taken in Hull Paragon in June 1970. Note the frame fitted the lamp brackets, and the marker lamps seem to be be missing the glass (or are very clean!). Allan Dawson.
