Original series of Electrics for the WCML Electrification.Built from 1959 to 1964.A total of 25 built.All withdrawn by1989.One survives in Preservation-81002 (E3003)
Something from over 40 years ago! The former E3013, 81011 grinds north through Norton Bridge with a old style fitted freight train.Pictured from the then completely open and unrestricted old Cattle Dock there.Spiky fencing just didn't exist in those days and the railway was all the better for it.Note my 1969 Ford Capri GT1600GT casually parked just yards from the tracks.
