A British Railways Board publicity image showing the prototype refurbished Class 101 DMU with vehicles 51451 + 59545 + 51518. The text on the back reads: BR Plans A Facelift For Local Diesel Trains British Rail is planning to give a facelift to some 1,800 passenger coaches running on local services, mainly outside London. A prototype train has been transformed externally with an experimental livery of white bodywork and blue waistband. Internally two of the three coaches have been given a modest refit, but the third coach has undergone a complete interior restyle. The prototype train will be touring Britain for three months to obtain local reaction. Britiish Railways Board.

The loneliness of the long-distance railcar (with apologies to Alan Sillitoe, Tom Courtenay and others for the title.) A first generation diesel multiple unit leaves Tywyn on the Cambrian coast with an up service on Sunday 7th July 1974. The viewpoint is the Neptune Road bridge and on the left the narrow gauge tracks of the Talyllyn Railway, which terminates here, are clearly visible. It's a long formation (nine or ten vehicles), the closest five or six vehicles are Class 101s, the cab facing us has a Tyseley set number so is a three-car, the vehicles at the far end have different roof vent alignments so are different types. Tom Harper.

Metro-Cammell Class 101 (1959 batch) Local Passenger 3-car dmu No.51451 (Class 101/2) No.59545 (Class 171) & No.51518 (Class 101/2) on display in Marylebone station, mid-July 1974. This was the first dmu to be refurbished on a trial basis to establish what kind of refurbishment program should be adopted for the first generation dmu's to extend their life owing to the lack of money for new stock. Each car was refurbished to a different standard and the highest standard I thought was excellent. Unfortunately this was too expensive to be adopted in the programme. I worked in the Railways Directorate of the Department of Environment at this time and visited the set as part of my job. The platform this set is on was demolished and replaced by a new office block in the late 1980's Hugh Llewelyn.
