A new rake

A new looking MGR rake, well loaded with West Cumbrian opencast coal and trailing a brake van passes through Whitehaven's bi directional platform 3, sometime in early 1982.

 

From Workington - but originating at the Maryport Coal Concentration Depot - the train is powered by an unidentified class 47 and bound for Fiddlers Ferry.
