A hybrid DMU at Keighley. The Derby Lightweight (Class 108) DMBS 50613 is in blue livery, and still has an NE prefix. It is paired to a Met-Camm DTC, still in green. Circa late 1960s. Graham Clark.
A Class 108 DMU at Morecambe in September 1970. DMBS E50613 is nearest the camera, and being an Eastern Region vehicle it has probably worked in from Leeds and is pictured prior to returning there. Graeme Phillips Collection.
Lancaster Castle railway station with Class 108 DMBS 50613 closest, Monday 07 May 1979. Ian 10B.
E50613 and E56191 entering Lancaster Castle on the 2nd August 1979. Robert Frise.
Class 108 E50613 in Morecambe circa 1982, on the right is Cravens 50757. S Saunders.
A recently arrived Class 108 DMU in Ilkley station with the 14:19 from Leeds on 25 June 1983. Closest is DMBS E53613. Robert Thomas.
Class 108 DMBS 53613 at Doncaster Works. No date with this image, but the missing/smashed windows, open electrical boxes underneath, and the condition of the two locos either side, probably means it's after withdrawal in April 1989. It had spent almost all of it's 30 year working life as a North Eastern vehicle, only spending it's last 18 months at Bristol. Malcolm Clements.
