16th June 1962
In Birmingham New Street on June 16 1962 is a Park Royal and GRC&W set which have arrived on the 3:50pm ex-Rugeley (TV) and will now work the 5.10pm return. Note the 21F shed code on the buffer beam, this was Rycroft depot which had sixteen of the twenty Park Royal sets allocated to it on this date, the other four (50411-4) were at Watford. The DMBS has no whiskers, but the cover for the route indicator is from a vehicle that had whiskers. Michael Mensing.

With the goods shed and the footbridge in the background 2 class 103 units are stabled awaiting their next service to Birkenhead Woodside. These units spent a lot of their working life in the Chester area working to Birkenhead, Manchester and into north Wales. Edgehillsignallman@Flickr.
