Class 108, Silecroft, June 1980. This is one of my favourite DMU photographs and taken quite late in my junior spotting "career". I only wish I had taken it in colour. We were having a few days staying in a caravan in the Lake District on an industrial locos bash and this sight greeted us as we came out of the Miners Arms having had gammon, egg and chips, or was it chicken in a basket (remember those days!) and a couple of pints. All excellent stuff! Alistair Ness.

With the former Midland Railway route to Wennington and Settle Junction curving away to the right, a four-car Class 108 DMU formation was running over former the Furness Railway route from Barrow as they approached Carnforth Station Junction with a Barrow-in-Furness to Preston service on June 15th 1980. The leading car complete with its first class saloon was Driving Trailer Composite Lavatory (DTCL) M56239 coupled to Driving Motor Brake Second (DMBS) M50958, with M56270 & M50987 behind. The large footbridge spanning all the tracks was once the pedestrian entrance to Carnforth MPD. At the time, Newton Heath & Carlisle Kingmoor allocated Class 108's were synonymous on stopping services along the former Furness Railway route from Carnforth to Barrow and along the Cumbrian Coast to Carlisle.

The connection was still in from Burscough Bridge serving the MOF warehouses through the gate on the right. Martyn Hilbert.
