A Cravens two-car DMU (note the headlamps) rasps out of Southminster station, past the 1889-built signal box and on towards Wickford in April 1983. The goods shed still seems to be in some sort of use and note the gantry beyond, used to unload flasks that arrived by road from Bradwell nuclear power station. The line was electrified in 1986 whilst the power station was in use from 1962 until decommissioning from 2002. Kevin Lane Collection.

In the early 1980's Stratford maintained roughly 12 x 2-car Cravens DMU sets for diesel services in the Greater London area of the Eastern/Anglia region. These were Camden Road to North Woolwich, Stratford to Tottenham Hale and Romford to Upminster. A few class 104's and later 116 sets were also at Stratford for the Wickford to Southminster branch. Both Southminster and Upminster went over to EMU operation from 12/05/86. The Romford-Upminster branch operation is seen here at Upminster station the Class 105 attract little custom while waiting to form the 14:11 to Romford. The single track 3½ mile long line had one intermediate station at Emerson Park was operated on a one train working basis and the same set would shuttle up and down the branch all day providing a 30min interval service. Although appearing to link the GE and LT&S mainlines there was no physical connection at Upminster as the branch train platform was on the north side of the LT District line. Adrian Nicholls.
