circa 1969
No details came with this negative showing a Met-Camm "Lightweight" DMU. Aldeburgh is on the destination blind, a branch that lost its passenger service in 1966, the faded blue livery means it was taken after that. There is no driver and no tail lamp at this end, and no passengers visible. After withdrawal two sets were stabled to the east side of Leiston on the Aldeburgh branch for a rescue exercise, and these clues point to this being one of those sets. Stuart Mackay Collection.

Date unknown
Three of the Manchester Met-Camm "Lightweight" twin sets, thought to be in the Nelson area looking south west towards Briarfield and taken from the foot crossing near Manchester Road, circa late 1950s / early 1960s. Probably on an excursion it's displaying reporting number C113 and the two marker lamps either side have white discs in the slots. See similar images 28218 and 28369. Stuart Mackay Collection.
