Another DMU with NSE-liveried vehicles visited Stratford-upon-Avon on 18 June 1994 and is possibly one with some significance. First, it was the first and only class 119 unit I photographed here and second it is quite likely that this was the last ever first generation unit to come into the station although I have no proof of this. It was certainly the last I saw here as Sprinters had been solid on services for ages with the exception of some specially strengthened services on the May Bank Holiday during the previous month. I must have been given some prior information about this in time to drive from work at Tiddington as I was ready and waiting at the station for its arrival with the 11.22 from Birmingham Snow Hill. It's a real shame that I didn't take any colour shots but through looking at my notebook it seems that I may have run out of slide films at just the wrong time. Unusually for me I wrote down the vehicle numbers; 51107, 51079 and 53124, a class 116 DMS.
