A thoroughly miserable day when we though it a good idea to go to West Kirby on the train and have a walk. That didn't happen as it was like winter when we got there so we promptly cam back again!

508130, stabled, West Kirby station
Waiting for it next duty, veteran 508130 waits in the rain at West Kirby station. This class 508 was built by BREL York in the late 1970s and has been in service on Merseyside ever since. By 2019, the new class 777 units are due to be introduced so these units will be withdrawn and scrapped.

507011, ME 14.36 West Kirby-West Kirby (2W33, RT), West Kirby station
Having aborted our plans for a walk along the coast, we had a coffee in the smashing cafe at the station and caught this unit back to Liverpool Central. A waste of day really, but what can you do on the Wirral when it's a miserable day like this?
