A two-car Met-Camm set heads out of Haltwhistle station with the 12.30pm Newcastle - Carlisle service on June 27, 1968. Both vehicles have revised lining, the DMBS has window bars on the passenger doors, the DTC does not, suggesting the two vehicles have not always been paired together. Michael Mensing.
On the afternoon of 27 June 1968 a Met-Camm DTC / GRC&W DMBS hybrid set (both with window bars on the passenger doors) is seen at Slaggyford on the Alston branch. Michael Mensing.
A Met-Camm DMU is seen on platform 11 of Manchester Victoria, the long one connecting L&YR Victoria & LNWR Exchange stations. This was taken on 29th June 1968, the last day of steam at Patricroft & Newton Heath sheds. Pete LG99.
Hull Paragon station full of green liveried DMUs on 20th July, 1968. The Met-Camm is sandwiched between an early batch Cravens (closest) and probably a Derby Lightweight (later 108) (furthest). A BRC&W set sits in platform 5 and another early batch Cravens can just be seen on the right. Pete LG99.
A mixed D.M.U. service (Met-Camm and blue square Derby Lightweight) at Carnforth in August 1968. Stored steam locos can be seen under the footbridge. Curly42.

Passing through Saughall Station on the 6th of September 1968 is a Met-Camm DMU on the 13.55 Chester to New Brighton service. According to disused stations Saughall closed to passengers on the 1st of February 1954 but it looks like someone was still living in the house and attending to the garden. The KDH Archive.
Two Met-Camms at Huddersfield on November 9th, 1968. On the left in green livery is the 16:05 to Penistone and on the right in blue livery is the 16:20 to Clayton West. Stuart Mackay Collection.
This slide was simply noted as 'between Newcastle Emlyn and Llanyssul'. It is believed to be the Warwickshire Railway Society Central Wales railtour on 17 November 1968, taken on board Swindon Cross-Country 50722 (in green) looking towards a three-car Met-Camm unit (both power cars with BR logos on the cab doors). Stuart Mackay Collection.
An interesting liveried Class 101 near Guard Bridge on the 12.20pm ex-Leuchars Junction, the closest vehicle is in green livery with revised lining and a full yellow end, the other is in blue, the BR logo on the cab door suggests this had just a small yellow panel. 13th December 1968. Hamish Stevenson.
Met-Camm DMUs at Richmond on December 14, 1968, just before closure of the line. The station, and many of the associated buildings still survive in other uses. The United bus depot next door has recently been demolished. The DMBS in the first set is in blue livery. John Carter Collection.
A 3-car Met-Camm crossing the viaduct at Cleland heading east towards Edinburgh on the route from Glasgow via Shotts. Date unknown, but the set is in plain blue livery, the leftmost car has just a small yellow panel which dates it to circa late 1960s. Stuart Rankin.
A Class 101/101/107 set. The 107 DMBS (furthest, leading) is still in green, the 101 vehicles in blue, the closest has yellow cab doors. Seen at Law Junction, date unknown but circa 1969. Stuart Rankin.
Passing through Princes Street Gardens circa late 1960s are a three-car Met-Camm DMU on an Edinburgh Waverley - Kirkcaldy service, an empty car transporter hauled by a Brush type 4, and just caught on the right is a Swindon Inter-City DMU. Stuart Mackay Collection.

Met-Camm and (blue square) Derby Lightweight DMUs in Manchester Central station. Date unknown but the mix of blue (Note the BR logos are on the cab doors) and green liveries suggests mid to late 1960s, the station closed in May 1969. DMU services from here went to Chester and Liverpool (were there others?). Stuart Mackay Collection.
Darlington depot with at least 35 DMU vehicles in view. All but three are Met-Camms, those three can be seen in the row on the left and have two rows of vents on the roof rather than three. They are still airvac vents, so they are probably BRC&W vehicles. The mix of green and blue liveries suggest this is the late sixties, possibly a Sunday since there are so many vehicles on shed. Darlington station can be seen in the background. Graham Clark.
