Too easy.........:)

 

On a grey Pennine Spring day in May 1981, a westbound freight approaches Hadfield behind two 76 class locomotives. The 1500v DC electrified Woodhead route linking Manchester and Sheffield closed to through traffic just a few months later.

Following the handover of its non-suburban rail services the federally owned Australian National Railway in 1978, the State Transport Authority of South Australia retained two ALCo DL531 units for a time.

These two units 830/845 were often hired out to Australian National as was the case on the evening of 22 October 1982 when 830 was seen in the Adelaide Parklands with a Mile End to Dry Creek transfer freight.

State Railway Authority of New South Wales 8504, at Enfield depot, Sydney.  These electric locomotives were visually quite similar and carried the same livery as the class 80 diesels such that they were sometimes switched into non-electrified tracks by mistake.

Here's one I'd forgotten I had.........Built by English Electric from 1960 the 87 class were originally known as the 90 class when introduced and carried the classy East African Railway maroon livery.

By December 1976 when this image was taken at Kisumu, Kenya, they had been reclassified as the 87 class and had a livery change.
