Here Class 116 DMBS 51138, set T405, and Class 117 DMS 51412, set T307, are seen at Birmingham New Street on the final day, Sunday 29 November 1992 - only it wasn't the final day as it turned out, with another 'Finale' taking place in 1993."

23rd April 1987
Vehicle: 51884 Set: TS524
Emerging from the gloom of Birmingham New Street station on 23/Apr/1987 is Class 115 DMBS no. 51884 at the head of non-gangwayed three-car set TS524 formed with 59622 (cl.127) and 53112 (cl.116). This was a nine-car consist, the other sets recorded as being TS400 formed 51862-59602-53124 (classes 115-127-116) and TS354 formed 53890-59054-53910 (two class 116 DMSs with a class 101 trailer brake). Unusually at this late date and for a unit in Blue/Grey livery, two white marker dots are displayed in the former headcode panel of the leading 115 and as I recall, they were actually stuck on the outside purely for effect. It looked really good compared with the usual plain painted treatment. 51884 had a more varied allocation history than many 115s, being new to Chaddesden thence to Trafford Pk, Allerton, Toton, Allerton again, Marylebone, back to Allerton before a return to Marylebone and a final transfer to Tyseley in 1986. It received gangways for the first time only in September 87. Robert Chilton.
