Class 115 DMU at Tyseley Depot

28th November 1988

Class 115 Derby DMBS 51867 of set T412 stands in a siding at Tyseley depot 28-11-88. Went for scrap May 1992 - plenty of life left in it at this point! On Tour With The Class 13 Army.

Class 115 DMU at Gravelly Hill

11th February 1989

A hybrid DMU (set T412, presumably Class 115 51867 closest) and another suburban DMU in Gravelly Hill on 11 February 1989. Two units on Birmingham Cross-City workings pass in the station. Alistair Ness.

Class 116 DMU at Droitwich Spa

28th September 1990

Droitwich Spa on 28 September 1990 - Tyseley-based set TS412 is approaching working the 12.00 Birmingham New Street-Great Malvern. I recorded the power cars as 53116 (leading) and 51867. Lewis Bevan.

Class 116 DMU at Small Heath station

17th November 1990

Tyseley's set T412 at Small Heath station, which should have been headed by 53102 but had been reformed with 53116, followed by 59591, 59668 and 51867, on 17/Nov/1990. The formation was a mixture of class 116, 127 and 115 which was normal for most of the four-car sets at Tyseley at the time. Robert Chilton.

Class 116 DMU at Smethwick West

6th May 1991

Tyseley's four car sets were mostly formed of class 115, 116 and 127 as was the case on 6 May 1991 when I photographed T412 (53055 + 59446 + 59591 + 51867) passing the now demolished Smethwick West signalbox with a Hereford to Birmingham New Street train. The class 47 waiting at the signal was 47813 working a railtour that had just visited Handsworth in the days before the line was re-opened through to Snow Hill. Just behind the camera the Handsworth line crossed the Birmingham New Street to Wolverhampton route. This is now the site of Galton Bridge Station interchange where passengers can change trains between the two lines thus making the old Smethwick West station redundant. It's worth noting that any train leaving the Handsworth branch including this railtour had to run wrong line as far as Rood End Yard between here and Langley Green. Peter Tandy.

Class 116 DMU at Redditch

23rd January 1993

T412 (53116 + 59446 + 59591 + 51860) at Redditch, having arrived as the 09:36 ex-New St, and about to form the 10:23 to New St. Note the wiring which was near to completion, spelling the end of most Tyseley DMU’s. 23rd January 1993. Gazza Prescott.

Class 116 DMU at Birmingham New St

10th April 1993

53116 at the rear of set T412, after arrival at New St as the 11.25 from Longbridge on 10/4/93. The set would reverse and then form the 12.06 to Redditch. On this day the other cars in the set were 59591, 59446 and 51860. At this time 53116 was approaching 36 years of service and would go on to achieve another two, all at Tyseley. Leonard Rogers.

Class 115 DMU at University station

10th April 1993

51860 at the head of set T412 (51860/59591/59446/53116) leaves University station, Birmingham, on the 12.53 Redditch - New St on 10/4/93. Leonard Rogers.

Class 116 DMU at University station

Class 116 DMU at Worcester

2nd May 1993

Run in conjunction with Worcester Rail Day, 20066/20138 were photographed at Hereford on 2 May 1993 on one of a series of "mini-tours" which used DMU sets T404 + T412 as the hauled stock. They had set off from Birmingham New St, and, after visiting the Open Day at Worcester, tour participants had a choice from a return trip to Gloucester, then two return trips to Hereford, before the return to Birmingham. Lewis Bevan.
