Central Trains servies between Nottingham and Cardiff are normally operated by single two- or three-car Class 170 sets, but today this service was strengthend to two two-car units to cater for the extra demand generated by the Rugby Union Heineken Cup final between Munster and Biarritz at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium. In this photograph the train is departing platform 2 of Newport station in South Wales with 170515 on the rear and 175511 leading.

Cambridge-longplatform-north-06.jpg (163806 bytes)

Cambridge railway station has a very unusual layout, with the platforms approximately resembling a capital H - to the left of the left vertical stroke is the station car park, booking hall, etc. There are two bay platforms in the area between the two vertical strokes at both northern and southern ends, platforms 2 and 3 at the south end and 5 and 6 at the north. All the way along the right vertical stroke is a single platform face - the second longest in Britain (after Gloucester) - that is split into two numbered platforms (1 at the southern end and 4 at the northern) which are then subdivided into 1a, 4b, etc. There are several sets of points that allow access between this line and the lines adjacent at multiple places.
This merged view is looking north from platform 4, just south of the buffers for the northern bay platforms 5 and 6. Platform 6 is currently host to a Central Trains Class 170 DMU.

UK17050X.jpg (99940 bytes)

Seen at Cossington just south of Loughborough a class 170 heads south on a sunny 18 October. Quite a famous location and perhaps a morning visit would be more advantageous to get shots on the Down and Up fast lines, as far as I can ascertain this is looking at the Down and Up slow - go on prove me wrong !

UK17051A.jpg (134296 bytes)

One of my favourtie locations - Newport General. Photographed on 06 March 2005, The thing I like about this location is that the sun is in the perfect position after midday to give a 'three quarters, over the shoulder' shot. As well as this you can get a the background shot of the station. This is a Central 170 seen at the station.

cardiff-170-bullring-hmm--jp.jpg (114052 bytes)

This is certainly one of the more unusual pictures we have submitted! The 'Bullring' class 170 unit has one coach mostly in black but the other one looks as if it has embossed wallpaper on it, not to mention the two ladies on the side! Never seen anything quite like it...at least not on a train that is! The place is Cardiff and the date February 14th 2004.
