I was lucky enough to be on that said run. 508104 bowed out in a snowy back drop on the New Brighton line ๐ฅฒ
Oh how I miss these machines ๐ญ

Today marks one year since the last 508 ran in passenger service on @Merseyrail. Sadly no complete unit is preserved, but one driving car from 508201 is at the East Kent Railway.

Year In Review 2024: January โจ
January was a month of endings with the end of the Class 508s, 56081 going for rebuilding and the end of the 319s ๐
But we saw a new beginning with the arrival of 93001 ๐ฎ

So the day has come. The Class 507 Farewell ๐ฅฒ
Time for one last bash around the Northern Lines behind the best traction the country by far ๐

But as the 2020s kicked in the end was nigh and saw many of my beloved 507s and 508s head to the dreaded Newport. โ ๏ธ
Was quite somber watching my childhood units head to the scrapyard. ๐ข

The upturn in 507 bashing came when i joined the railway so it became free for me to do it!
So in rain, hail or snow I was up Merseyside at every available opportunity for these beasts!
#507farewell #class507 #PEP #Merseyrail #hellfire #class508 #megatraction
Once the woes of not giving a crap what people thought kicked in in my 20s it was back to riding the absolute hell out of these fantastic machines!
Every trip to Liverpool saw me bash these beasts!

Into my early/late teens I drifted away from the Railway Hobby due to it not being seen as cool (Stupid me)๐
But I still had a soft spot for the 507s and snuck photos of them whilst i could ๐ธ

10 year old mes weekends always consisted of the same routine. Saveways and PEPs.๐
I used to travel Kirkdale - Hunts Cross- Central - New Brighton as they were my favourite routes on the Network. ๐

#merseyPEPmonday - A nod to these workhorses of Merseyside as they come to their final days, although the final days of 508s have been and gone...
