summer 1987
Set: L410
Sutton Coldfield on the West Midlands Cross-City Line wasn't the place I expected to see a Reading allocated class 117 on a misty day sometime in the summer of 1987. It was operating as a 4 car set with 51345 leading. The set must have worked north at some point and pinched by Tyseley, always a bit short of fully functional trains, and put on this major suburban route. The impressive building in the background is the New Hall Hotel which to me is reminiscent of one of the grander Scottish establishments. Peter Tandy.

19th February 1994
Set: L722
Class 117 DMU sets L722+L703 at Braunstone Gate Sidings, Leicester on February 19, 1994. Doing what the BLS (Branch Line Society) did best crunching the rust on sections of the network rarely reached by other railtour operators. Here class 117 DMU sets L722 (51345+51387) & L703 (51359+51401) coupled behind disgorge their passengers into the remnants of Leicester Braunstone Gate Sidings for a photo stop on the "Radlett Rambler" railtour. This line being the former Great Central Railway route into the city from the south but truncated as a branch after the Beeching closures, its final days being to serve Vic Berry's scrapyard using a curve added by BR in 1965 off the Coalville freight line linking the former Midland and GC lines together. The whole area has since been redeveloped with no trace of the railway remaining. Adrian Nicholls.
