Three 2-car Cravens (later Class 105) DMUs at Hornsea Town station forming a Summer Saturday service to Hull - c.08/1964. Hornsea Town was the eastern terminus of the Hull and Hornsea branchline. The last passenger train between Hull and Hornsea ran on 19th October 1964.

A Cravens 2-car set waits at a tired looking Dunstable North station before returning to Hatfield on Monday 29 March 1965, just under a month before passenger services ceased. This would be the 3.07pm departure, the first train since 8.45am. No wonder the line closed! The van is occupying the bay platform used by former LNWR trains from Leighton Buzzard, which had last run in 1962. Kevin Lane Collection.

This photo of a power-twin on 1F23 Southport to Lime Street service was taken at Stanley looking north but before I became signalman at Edge Lane. Incidentally I never saw any of these Cravens units on this service whilst at Edge Lane. The Southport to Lime Street DMU service was introduced from about April 1966. From 18 April 1966 to 5 March 1967 the timings were 1F05 0925 Southport to Lime Street 1F23 1525 Southport to Lime Street 1F98 1805 Lime Street to Southport 1F99 2125 Lime Street to Southport The headcode of C2 should refer to ECS working from Lime Street to Wigan NW. There was no headcode allocated for the Lime St to Southport service. The only headcodes for Lime Street were; Second character Lime St to or from - Kenyon Jcn 1 Wigan NW 2 Crewe 3 Allerton sidings 4 Chester General 5 Manchester Piccadilly 6 Warrington Central 7 Wigan NW to or from - Allerton Sidings 9 Edgehillsignallman@Flickr.
Another summer Saturday afternoon in 1966 at Manchester and a Cravens power-twin unit and a BRCW sit alongside each other having both arrived at Manchester Victoria. The Cravens unit had arrived from Blackpool but I didn't find out where the BRCW unit was from. Edgehillsignallman@Flickr.
A pair of class 105 Craven units at Scarborough in 1966. A class 110 BRCW is also parked alongside. I always thought all DMUs looked better in green than blue, maybe because of the cream bands around the bodywork. Edgehillsignallman@Flickr.
