Some non disabled toilets were retained, but minus any natural light. Jo 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone's been round and fitted them with Kadee's...... Sloppy work, they've even left the draft box showing...... 😁 Edited June 14 by Geep7 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Darius Doesn't matter, I can see them, but they bought two new unused Talgos off the US with a supposed maximum speed of 330km/h. I wonder how fast they have been?

RMweb Gold 4630 Posted July 23 RMweb Gold Share Posted July 23 (edited) On 23rd July 2024 Colas 43301 and 43357 head west along the Calder Valley towards Brighouse, working from Derby RTC to Derby RTC. This was presumably a driver training/route refresher trip. The route encompassing the line in South Yorkshire to Sheffield, then via Wakefield Kirkgate to the Calder Valley in West Yorkshire, before heading via Copy Pit to reach Preston and Leyland in Lancashire. The route was then retraced back to Derby. Edited July 24 by 4630 To add another photo. 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Kevin (Commoner) Thanks Kevin - I spent quite a while enjoying your flickr pages the other day, so many of your photos brought back some very happy memories for me. I've posted a few on the Old Oak facebook page too (with credit to you of course) and they've been very well received by the mostly now retired train crews.
