A publicity image (negative D9724-13) captioned "Three-car suburban diesel multiple unit in West Midlands Passenger Transport Executive livery at Kings Norton on 4 September 1981". The white line along the blue band means this is very probably set TS541 (50888 + 59334 + 50835) which had been decorated for the royal wedding of Charles and Diana. British Rail.
19th April 1986
Tyseley's DMUs, mostly class 116s, were seen at Kings Norton every few minutes while working between Four Oaks, Longbridge and Redditch. Class 108s did appear now and again but this 5 coach pair were working an Adex on 19 April 1986 which accounts for their presence on the down fast line. My notes simply mention that was a 5 coach 108 working an Adex with no detail from or to where the train was working. Peter Tandy.

25th February 1981
Suburban snow scene. The shutter speed I'd selected wasn't quite fast enough to stop this first generation dmu as it burst out from under the bridge here at Kings Norton station. The unit was working the 14:02 Lichfield - Longbridge cross city line service on Wednesday 25th February 1981. Meanwhile, a West Midlands PTE Leyland National bus crosses the bridge. Tom Harper.

circa 1967
Set: 407
The scene looks timeless with the semaphore signals, gas lamp with wire to adjust the flame, train crew with the driver (seated) wearing his grease-top and enamel signs. The Metro-Cammell DMU, although with small yellow warning panels is in the early blue livery. This is the centre (now disused) platform at Kings Norton and the date would be 1966/67. Geoff Dowling.
circa 1964
A Swindon built Inter-City unit (class 123) is on the through fast at Kings Norton. Thought to be taken circa 1963/64, and 1V72 should be the 5.20pm Derby to Cardiff. The station is intact with the buildings on the centre platform in use. The gas lamp is intriguing, it looks as if it is a more modern replacement for a lantern, judging by the bracket.
