51479
On July 9th 1981, the 10.58 Dunblane - Edinburgh dmu arrives at Falkirk Grahamston. This is my only picture of a Cravens car in blue/grey livery. 51479 is marshalled in a 3 car set with two Metro-Cammell vehicles, the rear one is SC50748 but I have no record of the centre car. The Cravens car was withdrawn in November 1981 and has already lost its destination blind. It is showing set number 375 which has later been prefixed with 105. It spent all its 22 years in service in Scotland. Gerard Fletcher.

51301
Although not officially withdrawn until September 1983 it is highly unlikey that Class 105 DMBS E51301 ever carried any more passengers as it sits vandalised in Falkland Yard, Ayr on the 21st May 1983. Attached to sister Class 105 DMBS E50384 together they had operated together for a short time as Ayr TMD unit 105375. Both vehicles eventually made the long one way journey to Mayer Newmans Yard in Snailwell, Cambridgeshire where they were scrapped in January and June 1984 respectively. Bob Woolnough.

Set 105 376 (a 105/107/107 hybrid) in Kilmacolm station forming the 11:01 to Glasgow Central on the 4th January 1983. The branch would be closed just days later. Note the patch on the roof above the van where the exhaust pipes formerly were, they are now at the rear of the vehicle. Hamish Stevenson.

51493
Cravens / Derby lash up 105 376 is being readied for departure from Paisley Canal on a Glasgow Central - Kilmacolm service. An old notebook suggests this is Cravens DMBS E51493 + Derby TSL Sc59790 + Derby DMBS Sc52004. Whilst the majority of services at Canal were the hourly all station Kilmacolm services, there were a couple of services to / from Largs or Ardrossan with additional peak hour services to / from Canal. Tuesday 04 January 1983. alicia hartman.
4th January 1983
51493
Mixed 105 376 Cravens / Derby Set coasts into Paisley Canal with a Kilmacolm - Glasgow Central working. An old notebook suggests this is Cravens DMBS E51493 + Derby TSL Sc59790 + Derby DMBS Sc52004. Passenger services would cease the following Saturday. A Paisley Canal - Glasgow service was resurrected in 1990 albeit from a new station on the Glasgow side of Causeyside Street, to the east. The land here to the west was sold off in due haste post closure and built over. Thus the realistic prospect of the Canal line being returned as a through route was stymied. Tuesday 04 January 1983. alicia hartman.

Last Days. Cravens E51493 at Glasgow Central having arrived as part of a late afternoon working from Kilmacolm along with its Derby partners. An old notebook suggests this is probably Cravens DMBS E51493 + Derby TSL Sc59790 + Derby DMBS Sc52004 which was used on Kilmacolm services on 04 January. Homeward bound commuters seem to be drifting along the then Platform 13 for another service, past the 'Front Train Beyond This Point' board in the distance. This would now be Platform 15 at Central. Probably Friday 07 January 1983. alicia hartman.

Last Days. Mixed 105 376 (105-107-107) rolls into Houston and Crosslee station. A view from Barochan Road and a solitary passenger awaits the returning Kilmacolm to Glasgow service, Friday 07 January 1983. One wonders if they knew there would be no trains on Monday? There were nearby road signs for a local hospital, which may have been Merchiston House, behind the trees on the left. alicia hartman.

Last Days. An afternoon Glasgow Central - Kilmacolm service with mixed 105 376 (Class 105 / 107) is heading west from Houston and Crosslee. The train has passed under Sandholes Road and is heading towards the Lochermill Viaduct thence Bridge of Weir. An old notebook suggests this is probably Cravens DMBS E51493 + Derby TSL Sc59790 + Derby DMBS Sc52004 which was used on Kilmacolm services earlier that week on 04 January. The outskirts of Bridge of Weir are visible in the distance, above the train. It is still possible to travel along here - but on a bicycle on the National Cycle Network! Probably Friday 07 January 1983. alicia hartman.

Ex-Eastern Region Cravens Class 105 power/trailer two-car DMU with DMBS M50389 trailing, was passing over the A6 trunk road as it departed from Bamber Bridge with the 14.30 Preston to Colne service on May 29th 1982. The bridge is the far distance spanning the East Lancashire line has a historic claim to fame - it was the first Motorway bridge to span a railway in the UK, the first section of Motorway (The 8.25 mile Preston Bypass and the first part of the M6) opening in December 1958. Unfortunately the original red brick bridge visible here was radically altered in the 1990's when the M6 was widened. Martyn Hilbert.

Unknown Date
A busy scene at Jesmond with a 3-car Class 101 and a 2-car Class 105. The Cravens set number appears to read 168, and that, along with the lack of destination blind suggests it's a recent transfer from Hamilton. Note also the two shades of yellow suggesting it has perhaps had repairs done. Undated, but mid-1970s. Ian Francis.
