This was photographed from the York Way platform (used by trains to Moorgate) that closed that year. A class 31 is just arriving at the head of a suburban train. Another 31 can be seen on a main line train, perhaps to Cambridge. The use of loco-hauled Mark I suburban rolling stock ceased with the opening of the electrification in October that year.

SWR Class 159 No.159004 passes Upton Scudamore,with the 14:51 Yeovil Junction to London Waterloo service,on the 6th of April 2023.
Here I am at Wolverhapton and according to realtime trains, this convoy of 97's was due to pass on platform one (right side of this image), instead being routed through 2 (the one I was standing on), so this is the best I could manage at the time.
Anyways, the convoy consists of 97302, 97303 and 97304 and the date is the 09/07/21.

When viewed "original size" you can just about make out 55011 under the bridge. Not sure about the cars in foreground, the first is a Renault I think

Preserved and mainline certified English Electric Type 1 Class 20 'Chopper' Bo-Bo diesel locomotive 20227 in a rather agreeable London Underground livery approaching Weybourne Station on the heritage North Norfolk Railway in Norfolk (UK).
20227 was the last Type 1 Class 20 locomotive built at the English Electric Vulcan Foundry Newton le Willows in 1968 and withdrawn from BR service in October 1990.
The English Electric Type 1 Class 20 locomotives which were first introduced in 1957 are one of the most enduring first generation diesels built with at least 22 units certified for mainline use in June 2016.
The locomotive is painted in LU livery in acknowledgement of its extensive engineering train work over the years on the Metropolitan Line and the London Underground's 150th anniversary in 2013.
20227 was a special guest locomotive for the summer 2016 season at the NNR courtesy of the Class 20 Locomotive Society.
