A Class 116/101/116 hybrid at Chinley on 27 June 1985. It seems to be set TS601, 53081 leads presumably with 59543 + 53123. Chris Thorp.
Class 116 / 101 DMU vehicles 53081 59543 53123 are unusual visitors to Doncaster station in 1986... an arrival from the Midlands would have been more likely to be a Class 114. Graeme Phillips Collection.
The original subject of this image was 56 048 arriving at Small Heath on 5 March 1986 to collect a train of scrap metal but the 2 DMU sets made the picture in retrospect. The train receding from the camera and going towards Birmingham Moor Street was a hybrid set of classes 116 and 101 (thought to be TS601, 53123 + 59543 + 53081) with a 122 attached and the furthest away a class 116 on its way to either Dorridge or Leamington Spa. Peter Tandy.
Do you have any images of the set you can add?
