13-Mar-23 Metropolitan Cammell Class 101 multiple unit at Rothley,
10 / 66

13-Mar-23 Metropolitan Cammell Class 101 multiple unit at Rothley,

Although this was taken a couple of weeks ago, this would have been a typical scene across British Railways between the late 1950's and the early 1980's. On the Great Central before closure these types of unit were used to run local services between Nottingham and Rugby through Rothley.Certainly many branch lines were provided with services by this type of train as well as some local intercity services (ie. Leicester to Birmingham).

Thank you to everyone who takes time to view and comment on my work. Feedback is always appreciated.

    Your monochromatic view really does make it look like it's from back in the 50's! Great pov, looking down the track.

    this shot really lends itself to B&W....if sepia it would be even seem more 1950ish....nice capture... :-)

    Wonderful photograph Kevin. Well composed, excellent clarity and nicely processed. The black and white works perfectly with this scene.
