The Loco Hauled Trans-Pennine Services
15th May 2006

The Trans-Pennine services were loco-hauled from the late 1970s until the early 90's and I got many pictures. The good thing was that they were quite frequently diverted over the Calder Valley line, where I lived, so as well as shots on their substantive route, it was also possible for me to phot nearer home! Unfortunately I missed the Deltics on the service, but I got a frequent "bag" of 45s and 47s until services went over to second-generation DMUs. Enjoy!

31457 passes Diggle Junction on Sunday 12th June 1988. It was at the head of 1M63 08.00 Newcastle to Liverpool. The diagramming of 31s to Trans Pennine trains wasn't unknown, but by the same token was far from common. They usually failed to keep to the timings, which had been set with Class 4 power in mind.
