Upminster Station on 4/6/70 with a 1927 built LT Q stock car next to a three-car Rolls-Royce powered Met-Camm unit (later Class 111). The closest vehicle is in green livery with revised lining, the centre car is in plain blue. Of the four sets allocated to Stratford only one was a batch three set with the four-character headcode, so the DMBS closest is presumably 51541. David Christie.

In the early 1980's Stratford maintained roughly 12 x 2-car Cravens DMU sets for diesel services in the Greater London area of the Eastern/Anglia region. These were Camden Road to North Woolwich, Stratford to Tottenham Hale and Romford to Upminster. A few class 104's and later 116 sets were also at Stratford for the Wickford to Southminster branch. Both Southminster and Upminster went over to EMU operation from 12/05/86. The Romford-Upminster branch operation is seen here at Upminster station the Class 105 attract little custom while waiting to form the 14:11 to Romford. The single track 3½ mile long line had one intermediate station at Emerson Park was operated on a one train working basis and the same set would shuttle up and down the branch all day providing a 30min interval service. Although appearing to link the GE and LT&S mainlines there was no physical connection at Upminster as the branch train platform was on the north side of the LT District line. Adrian Nicholls.
