Anyway a few more from Bury Station for the lovers of proper cars from yesteryear.
No.1 Austin 18 from about 1937
No.2 Standard ten
No.3 Big Austin Healey, my dream car.
No.4 Daimler Dart. Pretty rare nowadays.
No.5 Red car, someone help me out, what is it?
No.6 Morris 8 probably pre war.
No.7 Morris 8 post war.
No.8 DMU, headboard says "Dyce" it's a long way from home. It was the next train to Rawtenstall but had to go to Heywood first so being a bit weary I got on it and had a longer ride. All on a complimentary ticket June had from the Guide Dog days.
No.9 Old advertising board and rail-side distance marker to somewhere.

I know what you mean about the Austin Healey. I saw one this summer in red and black. I was mightily impressed, until the owner drove away, grinding the gears as he did so! Poor car.
