About what year was this photo taken?

Comment by: stey fishwick on 24th September 2009 at 00:37

about 1973 at a guess

I think that is my Grandad Joe Hewitt's tretirement (seems to be holding something). He retired at 65 in 1973 (or was it 74?)

The depot is "wired", so it would be between 1972 and perhaps 1974 when the electrified route was opened north of Weaver Jct.
