A Looe to Liskeard service just departing St Keyne looking at the rear of the train (Class 120 set P554, presumably 51584 + 51575) on 15 August 1978. Roger Geach.
The Quaintonian shuttle to Quainton Road in Aylesbury station on 4 April 1983. It appears to be a six-car formation, a half set closest added to a full set. John Law.
Two-car Class 101 DMU set S801 (51446 and presumably 51517) in Swansea station in October 1987. John Law.

Given the number of trains on the Birmingham Cross City Line and the reliability problems being suffered by Tyseley depot it is hardly surprising that quite a few mixed-up sets were around. In 28 June 1986 T201 formed of classes 101 and 108 (presumably 54361 + 51910) along with class 121 55002 was about to stop at Longbridge with a service from Four Oaks to Redditch. Peter Tandy.
In Longbridge station on 28 June 1986 is Class 108/101 set TS201 (presumably 51910 + 54361) with 55002 attached in the down platform with a service from Four Oaks to Redditch. A 6 coach class 116 led by T624 heads towards Birmingham New Street at high(ish!) speed on the up through road. I don't know the working but assume that it was one of the infrequent Cheltenham to Birmingham trains or possibly a service from Hereford to Birmingham New Street via Bromsgrove. Peter Tandy.
Longbridge station on 14 June 1986 has on the right 53120 leading away from the station on the Cross City Line to Lichfield City. The Class 121 DTS in use as a centre car is presumably 54284, the Class 116 DMBS on the rear should be 53077, these forming set TS513. A sister unit is in the down platform with a train for Redditch, the other end of the line. Peter Tandy.
An unusual visitor to the Birmingham to Gloucester line on 16 June 1987 in the form of a 3-car Buxton class 108/104/108 unit and a 2-car Class 101. The leading unit was BX489, presumably 53932 + 59207 + 51569. The train was a Blackpool to Evesham private charter which was run by Lancashire Rail Ramblers with connecting buses to the Cotswolds. I must have had prior knowledge of this train from the weekly STN and was probably disappointed when either a class 45 of 47 failed to appear. Given the number of both locomotive classes available to photograph on this line in 1987 I am now far happier to have had this shot than a locomotive and stock. The little girl watching the train is now in her late 30s! My thanks to Paul Stewart and members of the BLS for information on the reason for the train's visit to Evesham. Peter Tandy.
Class 116 DMUs were the commonest sets found in the West Midlands with Tyseley having a large allocation. In this picture from Kidderminster taken on 7 May 1988 set T325 formed of 51142 + 59757 + 53060 was approaching Kidderminster station with a Worcester to Birmingham New Street service. The background has changed since this date with the Severn Valley Railway having built various structures including a large carriage shed on the land on the right hand side. Peter Tandy.
Class 116 DMU set T325 (53060 + 59757 + 51142) at Kidderminster on 9 May 1987, taken from the platform as the unit prepared to stop while on its way to Birmingham New Street. The sidings on the left were still in use at the time but were subsequently lifted. Peter Tandy.
Not a very inspiring picture from Derby taken on a dull 6 June 1986 and which I took only because of the marker spots on the headcode panel of the Class 108 DMU. The HST stood there for ages and I couldn't be bothered be wait any longer for a clearer shot from the platform in which it was standing after it left. Peter Tandy.
Sorry, no details but a walk around Machynlleth shed on 7th May 1984. ANDREW SALES.
