A colour image of a 'modern diesel train' leaving Lincoln station as seen in a 1957 article on railways in the county taken from the British Transport Commission magazine 'Transport Age.

114 DMU

circa February 1957

E50033 (and presumably E56033) appears to be brand new when seen at Stratford, judging by the condition of the buffers, lack of blinds, and Leyland 680 engines. Date unknown, they were delivered in February 1957. Stuart Mackay Collection.


114 DMU

circa March 1957

A rare colour Derby Works image showing a brand new Derby Heavyweight set formed of E56035 / E50035 which was new to Lincoln in March 1957. Location unknown, possibly on the Wirksworth branch as these images often were. Colour images from this period were often hand tinted black and white images but the quality in this suggests it was taken in colour. A B&W version does exits (negative 57/142). One thing of note is the gutters - in b&w images these always showed as being darker than the body and the assumption till now was that they were black. Here they are a dark green. British Railways.
