Picture of the Day
Over the next few weeks it might become difficult to continue to provide right up to date and topical pictures for Picture of the Day, as most people are not going out on photo shoots and the number of trains operating are being reduced. However, we want to continue to provide some light entertainment for viewers, so we will use some older images, if current items are not available. Please send in anything which might be of interest to others.
On 1 June 2020, Grand Central liveried DB Class 90 No. 90026 is seen at Crewe on the rear end of a Wembley to Widnes Mk4 stock move, including Mk4 DVT No. 82201. The set is on route to Alstom, Widnes for overhaul and repaint into GC black and orange livery. This stock will be used on the new Grand Central open access service between Blackpool North and Euston, now sceduled to commence running in summer 2021.
