Up in the air

ever wondered how BR MK1 coach E4325 came to be stranded in the original platform 2 at Huddersfield station?. well, it was craned in on a sunday afternoon. here it is, about to lined up for going back on it's bogies. It was a right job getting it under the canopy, the coach roof banged against it at the last moment and there were a few creaking sounds, but nothing broke. the crane driver couldn't see a thing, a skilled radio operator talked the operation through and it was amazing seeing it done. 25th November 1985.
