I had this rake of coaches from Sheffield Midland to Leeds via the ECML.
The doors on these coaches open inward.
When I got on this train, all the doors were obstructed by crates of empty wine bottles. Not too good if there is a fire.
We discharged all the passengers at Leeds City and left to go to Crew ECS via the LNW and Stalbridge.
The engine was a Royal Train Class 47.
This night it was raining very hard as the wipers could not cope.
I bailed out at Dewsbury and the train went DOO back to Crewe.
I got a taxi back to the Mill, got some van keys, and drove over to Stockport to pick the driver up and took him back to The Mill.
Nice little job apart from the rain.
