50782
27th May 1972
Set: NH135
A Cravens DMU pulls into Ewood Bridge on 27 May 1972, one week before closure, on a Bury Bolton Street service with Alf Davenport in the driving seat. When the line between Bury and Rawtenstall was singled three signal boxes remained to control level crossings but the distant signals for these became fixed and Alf was not impressed. "If a man needs a fixed distant he shouldn't be on the railway" he would say. Fair point Alf - proud of his craft to the end, even on this very run down shadow of a former main line. DMBS M50782 is closest, the DMCL is thought to be M50815 labelled NH135. Image courtesy of Mark Bartlett. WA Camwell Collection.

With the former Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway station at Blackburn as a backdrop, Cravens 105 two-car DMU with DMBS M50784 leading, was in the West facing bay platform with a service to Manchester Victoria, via Bolton on September 18th 1979. These distinctive power-twin units were associated with the ex LYR routes in Lancashire for nearly thirty years.
