Having collected the single line token from the signal box at nearby Midge Hall, a Class 101 two-car DMU formed of cars M51523 & M53219 (N657) was gaining momentum as it was passing Pages Crossing at Ulnes Walton whilst en-route to its next station call at Croston with a Preston to Ormskirk service on April 29th 1989.

Exeter St Davids Devon 4th January 1975. As my train is departing westwards from the platform on the engine shed side at Exeter St Davids station we get a glimpse of the Great Western engine shed. The shed has been partially demolished but some of the stone buildings remain and a scattering of diesels are in residence. On the right is Class 101 DMU set P800 (presumably 51445 + 59549 + 51515) in blue livery. Pete LG99.

Class 101 DMU set P801 (presumably 51517 + 59547 + 51446) in Paignton station in late summer 1974. D1006 Western Stalwart is arriving, 2B43 is thought to be the 18:55 Paignton - Newton Abbot. Stuart Mackay Collection.
Not so long after seeing my first Western Region allocated "Metro-Cammell" DMU at Newton Abbot, they started turning up at Hereford - as Cardiff received a few sets. Here is set P802 (presumably 51521 + 59550 + 51449 transferred from LA to BR in June 1975) waiting to leave on a Worcester bound service. It was unusual to see these sets in blue and white livery at this time, though later this became common. John Crooks.
Laira-allocated Class 101 DMU set P802 with W51449 visible in Quintrell Downs station on the Newquay branch, looking east. Date unknown, it was a Laira set from May 1974 to June 1975. Stuart Mackay Collection.
Met-Camm DMU set P803 (W51450 + 59546 + 51522) at Bristol Marsh Junction depot. This was the first Class 101 DMU set to be painted into the Blue / Grey livery, the work was done at Swindon during a C3 dated 4 June 1974. This slide is undated, but it seems to be taken very soon afterwards. Stuart Mackay Collection.
A Class 101 DMU in blue & grey livery with headcode boxes, tail lamp and blue square coupling codes makes for an unusual sight, but set 803 consisting of cars W51450 W59546 W51522 was one of a number of longstanding Western Region 3-car formations allocated to Cross-Country services, so received this livery long before it became standard. The set number 803 carries the prefix P in this image, showing it was allocated to the Plymouth area at the time, but other prefixes were carried over the years as it was transferred between depots, the last being S (Swansea), and as S803, it and several other units were transferred to the north-east of England in Autumn 1987 when that region's new Class 143 Pacer fleet were experiencing chronic problems with their gearboxes. P803 is seen here departing Keyham, Devon on 06/09/1974. Graeme Phillips Collection.
In the platform at Exeter St Davids is Class 101 No W51522 on 8 March 1975. In the shed yard are Class 52 No 1025 WESTERN GUARDSMAN and Class 25 No 25 274, shunting vans in the station yard is Class 08 No 08 930. Keith Long.
Set P803 (51450 / 59546 / 51522) is seen departing from Dawlish on the 24th May 1975. Neil Cannon.
