Macclesfield station in August 1969 and the dmu to Manchester via the ex-Macclesfield Bollington & Marple Railway route is formed of a Class 100/108 hybrid (set LT291), M50348 + M56484. Pete LG99.
In August 1969 I read that the Great Central & Midland Railway branch line from New Mills to Hayfield in Derbyshire was going to be closed shortly so took time off from geological mapping near Hartington on the Derbyshire/Staffordshire border & travelled up by train from Buxton. This diesel multiple unit (M50348 + M56484) took me from New Mills and here it stands in Hayfield station after arrival. Hayfield station building was intact & quite a few passengers still used the service. So why close it? Allegedly to save maintenance of the tunnel just outside New Mills station. However, after closure the tunnel remained open because it was used to stable the dmu before returning to Manchester. So again why close it? Pete LG99.

M53355 + M53812 form the 16:00 Manchester Victoria - Blackburn on 10 February 1989. It was normal practice at this time for three sets would come empty from NH together and be divided in the platform to work the 15:55 Wigan Wallgate, 16:00 Blackburn and probably the 16:10 Southport which would be the Class 104 behind. Harvey Scowcroft / Nigel Valentine Collection.
