The answers are:

 

1. Lancaster 31413 prior to working 1439 to Carlisle on 11 March 1989.

As I expected, 6 and 8 were the most difficult. Not many entries this time, perhaps people grappling with refurbished flickr or making use of the good Bank Holiday weather. Perhaps this is better as a Christmas/New Year thing?

Class 47 47195 (formerly D1845). The engine was withdrawn before the year was out

After my previous 'Goodbye EMT' photo featuring the class 158 & 156 on the last ever East Midlands Trains working I saw, I thought I might as well do a 'Hello EMR' photo too. This is the second ever East Midlands Railway working I've seen, as the first was 153318 & 153321 around a minute before - but as 153318 still had EMT branding on it I thought it better to use this picture of fully EMR-branded 153308 & 153311.

 

The pair pass Meadow Lane foot crossing on 18.8.19 - as trains run quite infrequently on this stretch (on a Sunday) it was quite lucky to see three trains within about ten minutes of each other, even better to get this one fully branded up as EMR - in fact this is the first train I've actually seen fully branded as EMR because the previous 153s were a mix of EMT/EMR, yesterday's 156/158 was an EMT/EMR mix too and the 222 from yesterday was all EMT.

DRS Class 68 No. 68004 paired with Class 37 No. 37605 power towards Barker's Crossing, Uttoxeter, working 0Z44 Derby RTC to Crewe Gresty Bridge on the 21st April 2015. The hazy specs on the right hand side are all mozzies and bugs flying around...!

Remember when the Mercedes-Benz A-Class was a highly innovative but rather strangely styled premium small car. Seems like a distant memory now thanks to the latest generation and its much more conventional styling and the fact it now outsells the Vauxhall Astra here in the U.K. and is a regular in the top 10 best sellers!

Elk test mishap aside it did bring new people to the Mercedes fold and its extremely distinctive styling and proportions meant it couldn't be mistaken for anything else on the road. A lot of toy manufacturers were quick to bring out their own miniature versions including Realtoy who perhaps made the very best one in its scale and pocket money price point.

This is an earlier example and just look at that detailing! Realtoy never appeared to skimp on anything to ensure it lived up to its name of REAL toy and easily blasted its competitors away.

Sadly, instead of dominating the market it has now virtually disappeared from the U.K. retail scene.

Bought on Ebay back in April. Mint and boxed.

Side elevation grabshot in poor light of British Rail Class 745 25kV 12 car Electric Multiple Unit (EMU) 745104 stabled outside Norwich Crown Point Traction and Rolling Stock Maintenance Depot (TRSMD) in the County of Norfolk (UK).

 

This brand new EMU has not yet been commissioned or entered service.
