BRITISH RAIL DIESEL ERA MISCELLANY.
Photographs in this gallery are of odds 'n' sods like stations, signalboxes, wagons, etc. Some of these pictures were taken by me and others have been bought and are part of my collection. These pictures are published for pleasure/information/research purposes only and are not for sale or copy under any circumstances. Information in captions has been researched as thoroughly as possible but its accuracy cannot be guaranteed.
17/11/19 - a few remarks on the Diesel Loco Repair Books. I found these yesterday whilst looking for something else. I have no clear memory of where they came from or of when I got them. They are mostly dated from the latter part of 1984 at which time I still lived in Wisbech. I may well have scrounged them from the rubbish skip at March Depot when they were closing down in 1992 (I got an amazing amount of stuff from there!). I seem to remember that I once had a bagful but over the years these are all that remain. Anyhow, they were kept in the loco's cab to note any running repairs, faults and examinations. Some had many entries whilst some were almost empty but I have been through them and included the covers, along with genuine grease marks, and some of the more interesting pages
