I am puzzled by the references in Mail List messages to Trains Nos. 75 and
76 on the Durham line. I checked operating timetables in our archives in the
1930's, 1940's and 1950's without finding any such train numbers on the
Durham line. During those decades, the local freights were Nos. 71 and 72.
Operating Timetable No. 7 Effective Wednesday, August 4, 1954 (about 3 weeks
before passenger trains were replaced with mixed trains) lists local
freights Nos. 71 and 72. Supplement "A" Effective 12:01 AM Sunday, August 29, 1954,
lists first class mixed trains Nos. 71 and 72. In none of these sources is
there mention of Nos. 75 and 76.
You are correct. It was trains 71 and 72. My mistake. Thank you for
pointing this out.
