With just two days to go before Christmas, and in very poor light, a work worn 2-Car Class 108 in retro BR green livery formed of cars M54247 & M53964, was stood at the small single track terminus at Rose Hill Marple with a service to Manchester Piccadilly on December 23rd 1991. The set had once been a long-term resident of Carlisle Kingmoor Depot and was one of the regular 108's used on the Cumbrian Coast Line, complete with window bars on the droplights due to restricted clearances on the Coast Line between Carlisle and Maryport. In 1986, the set was returned to a retro BR green style livery and was used regularly on the Settle to Carlisle route. The set subsequently had spells allocated to Heaton, Neville Hill and Chester, finally being transferred to Longsight in the latter part of 1991. The set was withdrawn from service in July 1992 and scrapped by Booth's of Rotherham in 1993. Martyn Hilbert.
