Class 115 T404 (51853 presumably closest) is seen leaving Langley Green with Birmingham on the blinds. Undated. Tom Clift.
1976
Vehicle: 50915 Set: L243
A very nice mixture - a parcels 116, GUV and 128. Ian believes that this was L243 or 343 (which may have been 50915 with an unrecorded 128 - 91 or 92). The GUV is one of the blue square conversions, note the gap between "Rail" and "Express Parcels" where "Air" used to be! Taken at Langley in 1976. Ian McDonald.

17th February 1988
Vehicle: 51095 Set: L574
The 1114 Maidenhead - Paddington stopping service rolls into Langley Station formed of yet another hybrid DMU. This is a a pair of GRCW Class 119 driving vehicles coupled with a Met-Cam Class 101 centre trailer all running as Reading Set L574. The formation being W51095+W59530+W51056 .... It is interesting to note that the leading vehicle W51095 was running with set L581 until August last year, giving a reason for the misplaced set No on the front end ...... 17th February 1988. Nigel Mack.
October 1986
A mish-mash DMU (a 116 with probably a 127 TS) is seen between Langley Green and Smethwick West in the Black Country in October 1986 while working a Stourbridge Junction to Birmingham New Street service. There was, and still is, a 15 minute service frequency on this line so any number of pictures could be taken in a variety of locations. I particularly liked this area because of the industrial backdrop. Peter Tandy.
1st March 1986
Set: T524
In 1986 the line from Smethwick West to Rowley Regis was still controlled by semaphore signals. This picture taken at Langley Green on 1 March 1986 shows Tyseley class 116 T524 passing the platform-based signal box and lower quadrant bracket signal as it towards Birmingham New Street from Kidderminster. The low speed arm of the signal controlled access to Rood Ends Goods Yard which served several industrial sites with daily trips from Bescot. Peter Tandy.

The branch to Albright and Wilson's chemical works is prominent to the left of the picture. Peter Tandy.
