17th June 1991

Oh dear, what a mess! This Class 504 DC EMU has suffered badly at the hands of the graffiti vandal. With Manchester Victoria looking way past its best, and the state of this unit, the travel experience for the passenger is hardly attractive. Nevertheless I'll jump aboard and tackle a final trip over the 1200vDC route to Bury...Car nos. M77182 + M65461 have just arrived.
