E56192 leads a two-car Class 108 with a two-car Met-Camm on the rear working the 16:45 Morecambe - Leeds service seen leaving Skipton on 2 August 1975. Michael Mensing.
23/07/1977: Class 108 E50601 E56192 are seen heading out of Newcastle. Does anyone know the history of this unit operating in the north-east? Was it a demonstrator for the refurbishment programme? There are plenty of photos showing unrefurbished Class 108s in the area in blue livery up to around 1977, but this is the only example I've seen in Refurbished livery, as if they were transferred away at refurbishment. Unrefurbished Class 104s and 105s seemed to appear at around the same time as replacements - was the north-east treat like the poor relation and sent tatty units while Yorkshire got the refurbished ones? Graeme Phillips Collection.
M56192 is the DTC in a 2-car refucbished Class 108 attached to a 3-car Met-Camm in the centre road at Huddersfield on 8 June 1981. A Rolls-Royce powered Met-Camm is in the platform. Malcolm Clements.
