Guess the Station...

[Peter Mugridge]

I can't resist offering another one then... where is this old DMU?

This is quite easy.

Newbury?

 

[Y Ddraig Coch]

No idea. Look how new them sleepers are though!!

Ely….? There’s an E on a sign on the wall

That's correct... and in fact if you zoom in closely, the name itself is visible on one of the old lights ( those which were the subject of a thread recently ) as well.

Lest anyone ask why a Reading unit is at Ely, some of them had been re-allocated to East Anglia by then ( this was 14th September 1991 ) but still carried their London Division unit numbers.

No idea, but I bet a fair few people will have gone for a burton running down that slope to catch a waiting train!
