Down Class C fitted freight passing Rugby with two Type 1 Diesels
View eastward, towards London etc., LMR West Coast Main Line. In 1959 Dieselisation was in its early stages, but these English-Electric/Vulcan Type 1 1,000hp Bo-Bo, the first (built in 1957) of a production series that proved very successful, especially when used in pairs as seen here: Nos. D8000 + D8002 are probably on the 14.55 Camden - Crewe fast freight. (The girder-bridge in the distance carried the ex-Great Central main line over the WCML). After withdrawal in 10/80, No. D8000 (by then No. 20050) received the honour of preservation at the National Railway Museum, York.
