circa late 1950s
DMUs in Bristol Marsh Junction Depot circa late 1950s. A Derby suburban set is on the left formed as a two-car, centre is a Swindon Cross-Country, also formed as a two-car. W50741 is probably the DMBC as image 27151 was likely taken on the same visit from the opposite side. The whiskers on the set on the right identify it as a GRC&W vehicle, the angled fittings where the vacuum pipes come through the buffer beam seem to have been used on some of the Cross-Country sets.

Unknown Date
A Class 122, taken at 5pm one February evening at Bristol Temple Meads. The year supplied with the image was 1973, but given the livery it will be a few years earlier. The station signage on the right is in the post-1965 style (black rail alphabet text on white). For most of the late 1960s Bristol had just 55013 allocated, and the low position of the flash in the cab window matches other images of the vehicle from that period, so it is presumed to be that vehicle. It would move to Scotland in Spring 1968. Adrian Vaughan.
