142095 & 142096, stabled, Manchester Piccadilly station
142095 & 142096, stabled, Manchester Piccadilly station A scene soon to disappear from Manchester Piccadilly, and all stations for that matter, over the coming few months. Consecutively numbered 142095 and 142096 are seen stabled at Piccailly's platform one. Despite some searching on RTT I could not identify when they worked in or when they were to work out again. Platforms one and two were synonymous with the Woodhead route being electrified using the 1500v DC overhead system. This situation continued until 1984, despite the closure of the Woodhead route in 1981, as local services to Glossop and Hadfield still used DC stock in the form of the class 507 units.
