156436 Pauses at Tyndrum Lower station with a service for Oban. These units have been working this line now for well over 30 years, thoughts must be turning as to what will replace them.

I can just hear that Cummins engine revving and sound of the wheels travelling over the jointed rail! The class 156 captured along the banks of Loch Carron with a service from Kyle of Lochalsh to Inverness. #Scotrail #LochCarron #Class156 #SuperSprinter

Metro Cammell built 156468 stands at Middlesbrough whilst a small crowd gathers! The somewhat disgruntled passengers have just been informed their service to Nunthorpe has been binned! 😬

Good Afternoon from Lancashire 🌹

I've been called to the North today but not for mega CAF traction. No no it's even better than that. Stay tuned 👀

Early Spring in the West Highlands, the snow remains on the peaks, and the greenery of the hills is yet to come through. The Metro-Cammell built 156, the mainstay of the line for many years eases its way off the Horseshoe curve.

It's no surprise but I'm back in Greater Manchester 🤣

Plenty of Northern Action this morning from a very foggy Rochdale & Manchester Victoria 📸

Seems quite apt for today!
I hope the heaters are working! The Metro-Cammell class 156, a very capable multiple unit, albeit showing its age a little these days. Definitely one of the best DMUs I’ve ever worked on. 🔧

Manchester on a Saturday is not to be trifled with 😅

Sadly it took a Class 150 to help me escape in the form of 150102 & 156412 taking me to Rochdale for the evening 🫡

Off to go see the Premier League Champions 🏆

Not a mighty CAF to get us started but it will do with 156405 taking us to Manchester Victoria 👏

MetCam Marvels: 156418 and 156405 cross at a dark and dingy Manchester Victoria. Only a couple of years prior you could have seen them working EMR regional services...

Finally the mega traction is in play 😍

I double checked everything and I should be able to clear the Buxton line *TODAY*
