A Cravens Class 105 DMU in New Holland Pier station, Lincolnshire, circa 1979. Seen awaiting departure for Barton-upon-Humber, the service probably originated from Cleethorpes. No date with the original slide, but with the other tracks having been lifted and the front end of the DMU having been rationalised, it likely to be between 1979 to June 1981 when the pier station closed upon opening of the Humber Bridge.

Class 105 DMU Matlock Derbyshire 14th March 1979. The Midland Railway's main line through Monsal Dale to Manchester & Buxton closed beyond Matlock in 1967 leaving a shuttle service between Derby & Matlock. This continues today but in 1979 the station looked smarter and the Craven's diesel multiple unit older than today. Riber Castle looks down from the hilltop, a constant feature in a much changed railway scene. The Down line was lifted and the goods yard abandoned. There used to be a covered footbridge - I remember crossing it in 1965 to catch a train to Bakewell - but with the closing of the Down platform it and the 1850 platform buildings were demolished. The rail was relaid & the heritage Peak Rail steam services to Rowsley now run from platform 2 again. Pete LG99.
