A Class 116 DMU at Duffield in September 1983. It looks to be set TS511 (presumably 53054 + 59626 + 53106). Mel Smith.

Class 116 DMU at Borsdesley Junction

21st February 1987

A bit of smelly exhaust smoke at Bordesley Junction as two class 116 DMUs climb from the Moor Street lines towards St Andrews Junction and Birmingham New Street with an ECS from Tyseley depot which will later work on the Cross City Line between Blake Street and Redditch. This amount of smoke was commonplace with these DMUs when their engines were cold. 21 February 1987. Peter Tandy.

Class 116 DMU at Warwick

10th July 1987

M53913 is the closest vehicle in set TS511 seen at Warwick on July 10, 1987. Malcolm Clements.

Class 116 DMU at Bearley Junction

11th July 1987

A bit of paint makes all the difference when applied to a class 116 DMU; the ubiquitous type of unit in the West Midlands in 1987. On 11 July of that year T511 with 53832 + 59649 + 53913 was approaching Bearley Junction when I photographed it working a Leamington Spa to Stratford-upon-Avon train. Peter Tandy.

Class 116 DMU at Birmingham Moor Street

24th September 1987

At Birmingham Moor Street 1987 on 24/9/87, 2 days before the closure of the terminal platforms, a class 116 DMU awaits departure with a Leamington Spa service. It carries set number TS511 in the window, by this date it would probably be known as set T511, presumably with 53832 closest with 59649 + 53913. Stephen Burdett.
