For the Rocket 150 celebrations in 1980 a three day cavalcade was held along the historic Liverpool & Manchester route between Bold Colliery and Rainhill station on May 24-26th 1980, when a procession of locomotives and rolling stock, entertained the crowds. To get the punters to and from Rainhill a motley collection of DMU sets was drafted in to form shuttle services from Manchester Victoria. Ignored by many in favour of the more exotic motive power on offer that day, a six-car lash up comprising of a Class 100 (DMBS M50350 leading), a Class 104 and a Class 108, was approaching Rainhill with another load of eager and expectant punters. Martyn Hilbert.
A Class 100 DMU at Romiley - the station can be seen just past the junction- on the line to Woodley and Guide Bridge. Date unknown, likely early 1980s. Manchester is on the destination blind and the number of the DMBS looks like it could be M50351 - the temporary repair to the headcode is interesting! Stuart Mackay Collection.

The centre drive that once had fine horses and carriages in it now plays host to a Rail Express parcels Commer van and a Hillman Avenger. It is 15.50, 04/07/1981. Geoff Dowling.
The demise of my beloved Deltics was something of a shock to me. I resolved to buy myself a decent camera and capture as much as I could of the railway network before it all disappeared. This was one of my early attempts….. …..I managed to straighten it up in Photoshop but can’t do much about the composition! Having grown up with the Scottish Gloucesters, I was more than a little pleased to see this arriving at Manchester Piccadilly on the 15:13 ex New Mills, 26th May 1982. M50351 was the leading car - note the partial number on the buffer beam. Brian McDevitt.
