Vehicle: 51382   Set: B438

Class 117 DMU, set B438 (presumably 51382 + 59492 + 51339) approaches Wellington AHB with a down service. At this time there was a Shrewsbury-Cardiff service that ran in the early afternoon that was a DMU, and this is most probably that train. 23rd June 1985. John Crooks.

7th July 1991

Vehicle: 53242   Set: T032

A class 101/116 hybrid, T032 (53242 + 53073) was photographed during its call at Wellington, Shropshire on 7 July 1991. The train was a Chester to Wolverhampton working which was still quite often a "proper" DMU at the time although class 150 Sprinters had begun to appear now and again. It's annoying that I cut off the top of the tower of Saint Patrick's Catholic Church but I was using an 85mm lens in order to make the short train appear a bit less lost and didn't notice at the time. Peter Tandy.

7th September 1991

Vehicle: 53054   Set: T036

Strong backlighting and a misty morning don't make for great photographic conditions. This is class 116/101 hybrid set T036 formed of 53054 + 53245 approaching the station at Wellington in Shropshire on 7 September 1991 with a Wolverhampton to Chester train. The bracket signal was notable for having quite short arms for the 3 aspects and had been converted from lower to upper quadrant at some point. The arm on the right had side gave access to a bay in the down platform area. Peter Tandy.
