Salisbury, 18th September 1982

 

A Class 33/0, though to be 33033, arrives with an '89' Portsmouth - Bristol train. 33033 was withdrawn in May 1993, and disposed of by MRJ Phillips at Stewarts Lane in January 1997.

3T 1402 was reformed, in late 1979 - early 1980, from 2H 1122, by the addition of 77508. The latter coach, seen on the left, was originally delivered in May 1954 in 2EPB 5709, later reformed in 'Tadpole' 3R 1204. in January 1965, until disbanded in August 1979. 1402 was renumbered 204002 in May 1986, and withdrawn in May 1987, with disposal split across Vic Berry and Mayer Newman.

33110 appears to be in platform 4. This locomotive was withdrawn in September 1992, and was preserved at the Bodmin & Wenford Railway, although it was for sale in 2020, and is now believed to be in the same ownership as 33018 and 33202.

50004 St Vincent approaches from London with an Exeter train, and passes 3H 1105. 50004 was withdrawn in June 1990, and cut up at Booth, Rotherham in May 1992.
