I remember travelling to Bristol and beyond in 1974 and being horrified at seeing Class 25's, I'd expected to see nothing but Westerns and Hymeks (and withdrawn Warships), in my state of shock I took this photo (into the sun of course) as proof that the Western Region was no longer the hydraulic Mecca I thought it to be.
I think 7507 was allocated to Bristol Bath Road at the time, although Cardiff Canton (not too far away) did have a larger allocation.
Date: 3rd March, 1974.

Note the Dellner type coupling system at the front of the train. The Dellner Coupling is a version of the Scharfenberg coupler which connects pneumatics and electronics at the same point of contact.

Class 37 37518 (TE) passes the site of Mirfield mpd heading east with a tanker train.
This engine was originally D6776 and became 37076 in 1973. I saw the engine numerous times in this area before its withdrawal from BR. It was a lucky engine and survived into preservation (I saw it at Wansford on the Nene Valley Railway in early 2010) and is currently at the East Lancashire Railway (2011)

Great Western Railway class 158 958 slows for the station stop at the tiny Avoncliff station, whilst working the 10.11 service from Cosham to Great Malvern. The station platforms are officially just 30 metres (98 feet) long and hold only one full carriage. With Selective Door Opening not being possible, the guard releases just the very front door to allow passengers to join and leave the train.
Avoncliff Halt opened in 1906, originally built of timber with no shelters and was designed for rail-cars only. Shelters were later provided, the one on platform 1 was blown down in the great storm of 1987 and the one on platform 2 was blown down in a 1990 gale. Both shelters have now been replaced.
The little station used to have a limited service and be a request only halt, these days it has a very regular service of 43 trains that call on weekdays and 18 on Sunday.
