Class 116/101 hybrid set T042 (presumably 53863 + 51509) arrives at Bilbrook with a Shrewsbury bound service circa 1991. Ian Docwra.
A misty day in early 1991 doesn't do a lot for Tyseley's class 116/101 hybrid set T042 (53863 + 51509) as it comes from the Great Western main line into the local platform with a service from either Dorridge or Leamington Spa. The station here bears some resemblance to one a bit further up the line at Small Heath with a massive building over the up and down main lines, very much a feature of the larger GWR edifices. Both these Birmingham stations now serve only local traffic with no main line trains serving them. Peter Tandy.
Do you have any images of the set you can add?
