3rd April 1987
Vehicle: 53106 Set: TS625
Friday 03/04/1987, 1520 hours at Whitchurch (Shropshire). Set TS625 has just arrived with the 1450 service from Shrewsbury which terminates at Whitchurch. The driver enters 53106 before commencing a reversing move to transfer the set to the Shrewsbury bound platform. The set will then work the 1525 service to Shrewsbury and Wolverhampton. Note that the date shown on the cab board is wrong - this photo was taken on 03/04/1987! In 1987 this was the only service on the Shrewsbury to Crewe line to terminate and reverse at Whitchurch. The crossover which allowed this reversal was removed many years ago so it is no longer possible. Robert Hope.

circa 1960
This scene was taken on a fine summer day at Whitchurch around 1960. The platforms have a fine display of direction signs including the all important Postal Telegraph Office. Staff have the traditional uniforms of heavy dark blue serge with brass buttoned waistcoat and shiny peaked cap. On the right a teetering pile of pigeon baskets wait to be returned (I trust they are empty), a young man leans nonchalantly against the building perhaps he owns one of the bicycles, a drop handlebar sports job rather than the sit-up-and-beg Raleigh by the pigeon baskets. Standing at the platform is a BRCW class 104 DMU and on the right is 4300 class 6335, a long time Oxley resident. Image taken by Peter Shoesmith. Geoff Dowling and John Whitehouse Collection.
