Having just passed under the M6 Motorway, A Class 104/108 combo was approaching Bamber Bridge with a Colne to Preston service on April 10th 1982. The leading BRCW Class 104 set was formed of Driving Motor Brake Second (DMBS) M50467 & Driving Motor Composite Lavatory (DMCL) M50519. Both sets were complete with their first class saloons. Martyn Hilbert.
Class 104 DMBS M 53467 leads the 19:05 Blackpool North to Manchester Victoria out of Preston on 12th July 1984. Bruce Galloway.
A close up of the bodyside number on M53467 shows evidence of its renumbering from M50467 in July 1983. I had ridden on this 2-car set during a visit to Manchester on 28th January 1984. Taken at Springs Branch in June 1985. S Gaskell.
Class 104 M50519 + M50467 at York on September 27, 1982. John Carter.
A sad end for burnt out Newton Heath allocated Class 104 set 53467 + 53519 which was withdrawn in April 1985. DMCL 53519 is nearest the camera in the old steam shed sidings at Springs Branch in June 1985. The whole set was later covered in plastic sheeting, presumably due to asbestos contamination. S Gaskell.
