Until the Class 165 dmus came along in 1990 services out of Marylebone to Aylesbury and Banbury were dominated by the Class 115 dmus allocated to Marylebone. This photo shows a unit (made up of 51663 + 59660 + 59752 + 51886) leaving Banbury, and passing the now-demolished Banbury South signalbox, on the 09.42 to Marylebone on 17 September 1988.
