JW’s Scottish depot bash, May 1980
Teacher John with 24 of his excited schoolkids set off from Maidenhead Station late on Friday May 2nd 1980. Deltic overnight haulage beckoned to Edinburgh in their comfy reserved compos, Depot visits to Haymarket, Dundee,, Glasgow Works and Eastfield followed. Notebooks were swelled with late afternoon visits to Motherwell and Hamilton depots before a few hours at Glasgow Central.
An overnight return South via the WCML brought class 47 and 81 haulage. Once at Euston the exhausted kids were route marched along the Marylebone Road to Marylebone DMU depot for a final depot visit on the Sunday mornng.
Thanks to John Williams for providing the photos and notebooks to bring back the memories for many of us………………
