51297 + 56114 leads a service from Norwich arriving at Felixstowe on 12 September 1978. The set number is a little blurry but the power car, noted as E51297, would be in set 43 and it looks like a possibility. Stuart Mackay Collection.

9th September 1981
Norwich was always swarming with the busy little Cravens Class 105 dmus in the 70s & 80s. Resting between duties here is Set 43, E51297 + E56439. The old twin headcode box has been plated over which was unusual and note yet another Cravens reflected in the windows! The destination blind shows Ipswich, but strangely there was only a single dmu working along the main line through Diss at this time. This was the 17.15 Norwich - Ipswich all stations which was scheduled to run just behind a London service. 9/9/81. Gerard Fletcher.
4th May 1982
A Class 105 DMU working the 12:48 Ipswich - Lowestoft service on the outskirts of Woodbridge with Bromhill bridge behind on 4 May 1982. The set number looks like it could be 43 and E51297 appears to be the leading car. Stuart Mackay Collection.
