This line is now electrified...how awful is that!

Garry, don't know if I am missing something but to me the line looks to have already been electrified then.

Garry is right for once, the West Coast Main line has been electrified since 1973-4, but the Liverpool line has only recently been done. Mick Langton's photo shows no electrification on this section of track.

That loco is diesel powered.

Diesel Electric or is it Hydraulic? I'm not too sure.
But Colin Harlow is spot on.
