Class 116 DMU at Henley in Arden

×

Details

An interesting train on the North Warwickshire line to Birmingham in 1986 was the daily train booked to start at 08.13 from Henley-in-Arden which had arrived earlier and was routed into the bay platform; the only service so to do. This gave the rare opportunity to photograph a unit in the otherwise unused platform 3 and to take a picture with the signal in the clear position. I should like to have had a picture of the DMU nearer the signal but wanted to catch it for the onward journey.

The train, formed of the usual class 116 3 car set on this occasions TS609 (presumably 53894 + 59603 (a 127) + 53853), is seen here on 29 August 1986 with the guard returning to his van in order to give the right of way to the driver.
