1994

Haymarket depot DMU sidings in 1994. There are three Pressed Steel sets (including 117213 - presumably 51339 + 59492 + 51382 - and 117301 - presumably 51353 + 59505 + 51395) all idling. There are at least two Regional Railways liveried Met-Camm centre cars to their right - probably left behind from the three-car sets that moved to Corkerhill as two-cars. To their right are Strathclyde liveried 107s. S Saunders.

22nd January 1994

This is the 10.12 from Stratford-upon-Avon to Leamington Spa at Hatton on 22 January 1994 formed of 2 car 117213 (51382 + 51339). First generation DMUs were very thin on the ground by this time around here so well worth recording. Peter Tandy.

8th February 1994

The roadbridge at Cape Road, Warwick was a good shot for southbound (up) trains in the morning. I stopped here on 8 February 1994 despite it being a cold and misty morning for a shot of 117213 (51382 + 51339) working the 10.12 Stratford-upon-Avon to Leamington Spa train as it slowed for Warwick station. The change of gradient behind the train is obvious in this image and marks the start of the 1/110 climb to Hatton. In steam days a banker or two would have been ready for work in a bay at Warwick station to give northbound freights a shove to Hatton station where they would drop off, cross onto the up line and return southwards. Peter Tandy.

25th April 1994

In the fading light of the 25th April 1994, 117213 (51339 + 59492 + 51382) are seen leaving Haymarket station with the 17:03 Edinburgh - Thornton. Hamish Stevenson.

8th May 1994

117213 (presumably 51382 + 59492 + 51339) heading north at Moy on 08/05/94 5Z60 1125 Perth - Inverness for NRN fitment at Inverness TMD. Roddy MacPhee.
