A general view of the northern end of Selby station on 15th May 1979. A Trans-Pennine set, with E51967 leading, eases over the Ouse swing bridge before calling in with a Hull - Manchester Piccadilly service. Still plenty of railway-related detail around, along with a full cycle shed. The occupants of the house on the right will no doubt be bracing themselves for the next Deltic-hauled service to shake them to the core. Syd Young.
A four-car Class 123/4 DMU (E51967 closest) with a Met-Camm attached at the far end, seen at Scarborough circa late 1970s/early 1980s. Stuart Mackay Collection.
A four-car Swindon DMU led by Class 124 E51967 is seen to the west of New Mills Central, looking north west with Hague Bar Road up on the right, circa 1980. Stuart Mackay Collection.
A mixed DMU set with Trans-Pennine Class 124 vehicles E51967 and E51983 leading Met-Cam Class 101 set E50204 + E56066 on the 13.15 hrs to Manchester, at Sheffield, 24th February 1981. Paul James.

Class 124 DMCL E51967 on Darnall depot circa early 1985. Asbestos contaminated vehicles were taken there after withdrawal for boarding up (and component recovery?) before their final journey to the scrapyard, which for this vehicle would be at Snailwell. Mike Bunker.
A Swindon-built Class 124 ‘Trans-Pennine’ DMU consisting of 51962, 51981, 59772 and 51967 travelling south from Blackpool South towards Kirkham & Wesham approaching Highbury Road bridge, St. Anne’s-on-the-Sea. Friday evening 11 May 1979. Ian 10B.
