Class 101 DMU at Grangetown

×

Details

In a scene barely recognisable as the same today, Metropolitan-Cammell Class 101 unit 50157 + 56071, forming a Bishop Auckland to Saltburn service, passes the soon to be barren waste ground of the former Teesside Works Lackenby blast furnaces at Grangetown on 17th March 1983. The South Bank coke ovens are just out of view to the left and the converter at the Lackenby plant, under demolition in 2022, is to be seen above the railway as it curves away to the left.
