Class 108 set T066 (51943 and presumably 51568) arrives into Birmingham New Street with what is thought to be the 09:59 from Great Malvern on 15 December 1990. Robert Thomas.
The morning of an unrecorded date in January 1991 (I can't read the scrawl in my notebook!) saw bright sunshine and a sharp frost at Cosford. I do recall that the wooden platform was quite slippery as Class 108 T066 (51568 + 51943) left the station with a train from Shrewsbury to Wolverhampton, the driver having forgotten to change the destination blind. The attractive wooden buildings have now been replaced with prosaic bus shelters and the platform surface brought up to modern standards. The station is also unmanned although that is arguably better than when an especially grumpy individual was on duty who clearly didn't much like enthusiasts invading his territory. He didn't seem keen on passengers either! Peter Tandy.

An ECS working at Bescot on 22 November 1991 as Class 108 T066 (51568 + 51943) heads towards the station at Bescot Junction. The elevated portion of the M6 is in the background with the line to Walsall and Sutton Park passing underneath it. Peter Tandy.
Class 108 DMU set T066 (51568 and presumably 51943) at Barkston on 11 June 1992. Nottingham is on the destination blind. Stuart Mackay Collection.
