Sunday 27/06/1971 at Whitby, and the main station platforms are filled with a total of eight DMU vehicles of classes 101 and 108. The Class 101 DTC on the left is from the small batch of twelve sets the that had the mounting plate for the top marker light (but no top light). The leading Class 108 vehicle on the right is E50623, which was allocated to 52J / South Gosforth, Newcastle, at the time. It carries Tyne Rail graphics on the cab front and also the body side, and these incorporated unofficial vehicle names, which, in the case of E50623, was 'Cushie Butterfield'. For a full list of all the short-lived names, click the link to Graeme's flickr page.
