4w/e 30/01/60 Transferred to 14A (Cricklewood)

Then the allocations for 59626 are:

12/04/83 Transferred to TS (Tyseley)

The vehicle is mentioned in the following images:

DMU

Date: September 1983

Set number: TS511

A Class 116 DMU at Duffield in September 1983. It looks to be set TS511 (presumably 53054 + 59626 + 53106). Mel Smith.

DMU

Date: 14th June 1986

Set number: TS526

It wasn't too difficult to take this sort of picture at Longbridge in 1986. There was a 15 minute local service on the Cross City line with some trains terminating here with others continuing to Redditch. I can't quite make out the unit number on the hybrid set about to leave on the up line on 14 June but think it may be T526 with class 116 power cars sandwiching a class 127 trailer. If I am correct then the car numbers are 53070 + 59626 + 53095 which were listed as being at Tyseley during 1987 although as a four-car set with another class 127 vehicle. It wasn't uncommon for Tyseley to muck about with their sets as faults developed and all sorts of odd combinations were seen.
