28th April 1990
Vehicle: 53021 Set: T021
Wilmcote Bank, the 1/73 northbound climb out of Stratford-upon-Avon is the location for this shot of class 114 formed of set T021 (presumably 53021 + 54012) on 28 April 1990. It is on the 17.XX from Stratford-upon-Avon to Leamington Spa and one of the lineside gasholders near Stratford station station is clearly visible in the picture which I took from a convenient farm crossing. Peter Tandy.
7th September 1987
Vehicle: 54284 Set: TS252
Two 2-car units head up Wilmcote Bank on the afternoon of 7 September 1987 on their way to Birmingham Moor Street from Stratford-upon-Avon. Closest is Class 121 DTS 54284, presumably partnered with 53052 as set TS252. The road in the background is the A46 under construction at this time and the new overbridge visible over the unit's front cab, now right by Stratford Parkway station, was nearing completion.

7th September 1987
Vehicle: 54277 Set: T211
On the afternoon of 7 September 1987 two of Tyseley's two-car Class 108 sets led by T211 (54277 and presumably 53943) were photographed climbing the 1/75 of Wilmcote Bank a short distance from Stratford-upon-Avon. The leading DTS was possibly unique at the time as it still had operational headcode blinds although I'm not sure what the code carried on this run represented. Later, on the run to Stratford from Leamington Spa it had changed to display the set number. These shots were a bonus as I was in this spot for a picture of 47628 with the VSOE on its way from Stratford to London Victoria. Peter Tandy.
