142002 Agecroft 10 June 1994

142002, wearing the colourful Greater Manchester PTE livery, passes Agecroft on 10 June 1994 with the 07:50 Wigan Wallgate to Manchester Oxford Road service. The lamposts devoid of any lamps in the background, are not the result of vandalism, but council recycling, as the road over the bridge is disused and has been further cut back since I visited the location.

142057 Seascale 2 May 2005

With the Sellafield nuclear reprocessing plant dominating the skyline, 142057 approaches Seascale on 2 May 2005 with the 08:35 Carlisle to Barrow-in-Furness Northern Rail service. The area of sand dunes between the railway and the nuclear plant is used as a golf course. Presumably the areas of rough and sand traps were not that difficult to construct from sand dunes!

142096 Crowle 25 September 1999

142096, still wearing its original Regional Railways livery, arrives at Crowle station with the 09:03 Doncaster to Scunthorpe service on 25 September 1999. Note the long closed signal box at the end of the platform. The Stainforth & Keadby Canal parallels the railway for several miles here, and is in fact just over the fence on the left. Crowle station is actually in the village of Ealand, Crowle being a mile further north on the road towards Goole.
