'Piccadilly Approach' 2

Two generations of DMU that have now gone from the railway scene run parallel into Manchester Piccadilly on a misty December evening in 2003.

On the left Metro Cammel 101 693 in its Strathclyde livery on its last day in revenue earning service with the 16.20 Rose Hill Marple to Manchester Piccadilly and on the right 142003 arrives to form a peak hour service to Sheffield.

* A few days later to mark the end of what have now become known as 'Heritage DMU's' in passenger service, First North West organised a finale on Sunday December 21st 2003 'The 101 Farewell'.
