Newspaper Trains
In the 70s we worked out of Exchange station with 1S03 whitch left Exchange station at 23.05 with a class 47 on. There was a ramp in the middle of the island platform and loads of newspaper vans would come up and load our train.It was a fasanating how fast they loaded our train. I think 1S03 was the only train to use Exchange then as it had been closed to the public for some time. The 47 came off the train at Preston and was replaced by an electric. Baz
