M56144 & M51291, 12.05 Peterborough-Leicester, Leicester North
M56144 & M51291, 12.05 Peterborough-Leicester, Leicester North The 12.05 Peterborough to Leicester service approaches it destination being worked by a Class 105 Cravens DMU with Driving Trailer Composite Lavatory (DTCL) E56144 leading a Motor Brake Second (MBS) number M51291 at the rear. The leading car had just another two years in service whilst the powered car lasted on to January 1985 with both withdrawn at their home depot of Norwich. Behind the DMU is Leicester North signal box a Midland Type 4C that opened in 1911. Whilst many ignored DMUs at this time concentrating on saving their valuable film for more exotic machines I always tried to capture them. Looking back some forty years later, I am so glad that I made the effort; for the record, I really like this photograph!
