A Trans-Pennine DMU in Leeds station circa 1969. Only two of these vehicles are known to have had the cab doors painted yellow - NE51960 which had the blue squares inside the lamp brackets, and NE51963 which had the blue squares outside - so this should be the latter, unless there were more than two? Adrian Sutterby Collection.

On arrival at Sheffield, I made my way to the other end of my unit and found the leading car was a genuine Trans-Pennine beast. The full set formation was : E51964 (seen here) + E59765 + E59767 + E52087. What a sad state E51964 presents here, it reminds me of a WD 2-8-0 in the final days of steam. These units ran in pristine condition in the early years. I do recall to this day though, the comfortable ride I enjoyed that day. 20/9/81. Gerard Fletcher.
