Class 101 DMU, 13.36 Peterborough-Cambridge, West River
Class 101 DMU, 13.36 Peterborough-Cambridge, West River 
 A smart-looking Class 101 speeds across the flatlands south of Ely with the 13.36 Peterborough to Cambridge service. Often referred to as ‘The Ship of the Fens’, one of the finest medieval wonders of the world in the form of Ely Cathedral is seen on the skyline locating this image to a dead-end road crossing known as West River near the village of Little Thetford. The home signal that the train has just passed is controlled by the Great Eastern signal box on the opposite side of the line to me over my right shoulder. Apologies for the blurring of the train caused by me not selecting a fast enough shutter speed on my Pentax ME Super which could go up to 1:2000/sec. that was pretty good for a consumer SLR from the early 1980s!
