Looking south at Gateacre station on 29 March 1958 as train number M660 passes through the down platform on a Lincoln to Aintree Central 'Gand National' special. The train was being hauled by two former LMS class 5MT locomotives (Black 5s) numbers 44818 and 44806. Standing at the up platform is a DMU waiting to depart for Liverpool Central.
