307109 leads the 10:38 Braintree to Liverpool Street service past Margaretting on 8 May 1985. Quite why the destination blind is showing Chelmsford, when it has just a few minutes ago passed through that town is unclear! Originally introduced in 1953, the Class 307s were the mainstay of East Anglian outer suburban services until the early 1990s. Ironically the last few units saw out their final days in West Yorkshire. Out of the original 32 four car sets, only two individual vehicles now survive. |
