1967
My pal Pete lived near Utting Avenue in Liverpool. This photo was taken nearby in Morella Road as this is the only road which passes under the railway between Utting Ave and Townsend Lane on the Bootle branch. Really we missed many opportunities to photograph steam here. This must have been 1967 as there was now a regular service of about five trains per day running this route. It also stopped at all Southport line stations and was now a class 2 service, 2F55. Edgehillsignallman@Flickr.

5th September 1979
A late Summer scene on the Preston to Ormskirk line, as a two-car Class 108 with DMBS M51941 leading, accelerates away from the token exchange at Midge Hall whilst working a Preston to Ormskirk service on September 5th 1979. The former crossing keepers cottage is on the right of the unit, the building being set back as the route was once double track in the days before the line was severed at Ormskirk and services ran to and from Liverpool Exchange. The landscape here is dominated by Globe Mill an animal feed plant located adjacent to the signalbox and level crossing at Midge Hall. Martyn Hilbert.

A Class 108 heads into the gathering gloom with its tail lamp visible late on a Autumn afternoon as it passes the Cocker Bar between Midge Hall and Croston with a Preston to Ormskirk service on November 7th 1982.

Martyn Hilbert.
