With a friendly wave from the driver, a three-car Swindon built Class 120 Cross Country DMU with Driving Motor Brake Second M53739 leading, had just passed over Pages Crossing, South of Midge Hall with the 18.00 Preston to Ormskirk service on September 11th 1985. This was a regular turn for a Class 120 unit in 1985/86. With the passing loop at Rufford being used for its intended purpose (trains passing), the evening peak service on the Ormskirk line saw three different DMU sets in operation. The normal service unit was in use, then a West Yorkshire based set made one return trip to Ormskirk from Preston, filling-in whilst having worked from Leeds to Preston, and finally one of the Class 120 sets normally used on Blackpool North-Manchester Victoria duties, also made one return trip along the line.
