To Ely In A Class 387 Train
I’ve not used one of the Class 387 trains on this route before.
It was nice to get a table to be able to lay my paper flat.
I was going via Ely to Ipswich for two reasons.
- Yet again, there was no direct service between Liverpool Street and Ipswich.
- Ely makes a change from Cambridge and I wanted to photograph the level crossing.
These are some of the pictures I took.
Note.
- With a bit of smartening up, the Class 387 train makes the newer Class 700 train, look very ordinary.
- The Ely by-pass is coming on.
- The level crossing by the station is one of the UK’s worst.
Ely is becoming a much more important interchange, with five train operating companies using the station.
