A Class 114 set led by 53038, carrying Tyseley set number T021 (and presumably with 54042), branded "Red Star" and displaying "Bingham" in the destination blind passes the remains of Burton Latimer & Isham station with an up service. The up slow has already been lifted and the last remains of the down slow are being dealt with. A quarter of a century later, a third track was re-instated. Mike Dean.

On 30 December 1983 I travelled on the "West Midlands Roundabout No 2" railtour. This started at Birmingham New Street and visited Drakelow, Burton, Lichfield, Bescot, Bushbury, the Oxley curve, Kidderminster and Worcester SH before returning to New Street. This is the tour train during a short break at Burton. The set visible is 53323 + 59129 + 53307. Lewis Bevan.

Stanier Class 5 4-6-0 44804 (17A) heads homeward with an unfitted coal train, whilst heading in the opposite (south-westerly) direction at Burton-on-Trent is Wickham's "Elliot Track Recording Coach" DB999507 - 28/09/1964. The 5MT was withdrawn from BR service in March 1968 and was scrappred by Draper's of Hull in June that year. After use by the RTC at Derby, the Wickham's car survives (as the sole example of that company's railbus production), and after a nomadic existence since preservation can now be found in regular passenger carrying use on the Lavender Line near Uckfield, East Sussex.
