Description
It's September 1994 and i'm in the Liverpool Area, Merseyside. At this time semaphore signalling and signal boxes were still in use and that was my reason for visiting. We see Merseyrail operations at Birkenhead North, West Kirby and Hoylake. The stock in use was the BR PEP class 507 & 508 EMUs, some of which were still in BR blue & grey livery.
