Poorly Unit
The British Rail Class 307 electric multiple units were built by BR at Eastleigh Works from 1954-1956. They were initially classified as AM7 units, thirty-two of these 4-car units were built for services on the Great Eastern Main Line working out of Liverpool Street station.
By 1991, all Class 307 trains had been withdrawn from Network SouthEast services. However, five trains (307105/111/120/122/130) were overhauled at Doncaster Works for use on the newly electrified Wakefield Line service between Leeds and Doncaster. They received the West Yorkshire Metro maroon livery. The use of these units was intended as a stop-gap. The final Class 307 trains were withdrawn in early 1993.
This is 307130 feeling a bit poorly being rescued by 47417 (D1516) at Wakefield Westgate.
