Hardley Distant
On Saturday 14th September 2024, I was lucky enough to be part of a tour of Crewe Basford Hall Yard courtesy of the Intercity Railway Society which lasted around an Hour and 15 Minutes. Unlike most organised visits, we have been given permission to post our Photos from this trip on public access sites. This is the fifth of five posts from that visit.... Photo 1 - 66507 (Front) and 66592 (Behind) are seen stabled in Basford Hall Yard. Photos 2, 3, 4 & 5 - 90009 (Left) and 90041 'Pete Waterman OBE' (Right) are seen stabled in Basford Hall Yard. In the background in some Photos is 68004 'Rapid' working a container service. Photo 6 - 90008 (Front), 90016 (Middle) and 90040 (Rear) are seen stabled in Basford Hall Yard with 90009 in the background on the Right.
