 DMU

23rd April 1974

Set: EP585

Picture quality isn't very good but this has rarity value. It's the first and only time I ever saw a Swindon cross country DMU (power cars 50737 + 50667, seems to be EP585) at Reading which according to the destination blind was on a special, as expected (possibly a 'Explore Britain' adex). Also the discarded GWR ATC ramp between the down main and the through line and the up main and through line. At this time there were very few of them left as they were being replaced by the standard BR AWS, a brand new one can be seen on the through line. 23rd April 1974. 54A South Dock.
