Details

A WYPTE refurbished Metro-Cammell Class 101 DMU with Driving Trailer Composite Lavatory (DTCL) car E56220 leading, was running ECS from Marsden on the East side of the 3 Mile 60 Yard Standedge Tunnel, and was approaching the signal box at Diggle, in readiness to cross over to the Up line to return ECS to Marsden from where it would form a service to Huddersfield on August 11th 1979. This was common practice at the time, track rationalisation at Marsden station had removed any crossovers for terminating DMU services, and subsequently they had to travel to Diggle to cross over for the return journey. A third bi-directional platform has since been added at Marsden.
