The 12.50 Cambridge - Ipswich is seen at Cherry Hinton level crossing, near Cambridge, on 10 March 1971. Met-Camm DMBS E51222 leads, paired with a Cravens DTCL. The traditional gates have now been replaced by lifting barriers. The house on the extreme right was part of the short-lived station (closed in the 19th century). Tom Burnham.
The 08.55 from Ipswich is seen near Brookfields footbridge, Cambridge, on 7 October 1970. The Norman cement works at Cherry Hinton can be seen in the background. I have the cars recorded as E56122 and E50153, the Cravens DTCL would move to Finsbury Park the same month, the Met-Camm DMBS remained allocated to Norwich a while longer and would soon be noted paired with Wickham DTCL 56172. Tom Burnham.

Barrow in Furness station on 3 September 1975. In the grey morning light, where I had just been decanted from the overnight train from Euston - an LMS design 12-wheel sleeper - hunted abominably on long welded rail, but rode beautifully once we'd turned off the West Coast Main Line on to jointed track at Carnforth. Cravens diesel multiple unit M50766 awaits departure at 7.10 for Preston, partnered with a Class 108 vehicle. Tom Burnham.
M50967 has just arrived at Blackpool South with the 13.22 from Kirkham on 11 August 1976. The passenger doors have window bars, probably from its time allocated to Carlisle Kingmoor in 1970. Tom Burnham.
