Nostalgia time!! Scanned images of photographs taken on a 35mm compact. And slides taken on my Olympus OM1n, copied using an Epson V500 scanner. The quality does vary, but I hope they bring back some fond memories to all.
As a source of reference, I have used the superb Allocation history of BR Diesels & Electrics books compiled by Roger Harris, for withdrawal & scrapping dates on some of these images.

PWM 650 is seen at Reading depot open day 01 June 1985, attracting much attention from enthusiasts. This locomotive built by Ruston & Hornsby in 1952 carries both its BR number & Tops number 97650 in this picture. It is still with us stored OOU at a preserved railway.
