Class 104 Driving Motor Second Lavatory (DMSL) M53523 was passing over Pages Crossing as it was approaching Midge Hall with an Ormskirk to Preston service on September 11th 1985. Martyn Hilbert.
Class 104 53523 leads a Preston to Ormskirk service along the former double track mainline at Pages Crossing, Ulnes Walton, just west of Midge Hall on the 11th September 1985. The white trackside building is an extended former crossing keepers cottage, an occupation crossing still serves farms on both sides of the railway here. Martyn Hilbert.
Class 104s 53523 (left) and 53459 await their fate at Vic Berry's, 22/6/86. Ian Francis.
Class 104 DMU car 53524, the last to carry a white stripe signifying its modified suspension, is seen coupled to 53464 passing Appley Locks between Appley Bridge and Parbold on the 21st August 1984. The large house on the hill is Parbold Hall, then home of Sir Peter Moores, son of Sir John Moores the founder of Littlewoods Pools. S Gaskell.
One of the Newton Heath allocated 'White Stripe' with red buffer beam class 104 BRC&W dmu's DMCL M53524 with M53464, stand at platform 14 at a now totally unrecognizable Manchester Victoria. These units with a White Strip down the body side indicated that they had modified suspension for fast running on express services to Blackpool, which probably meant very little when i took this with the influx of class 150 'Sprinter' new builds. 15th February 1985. Andrew J Crowther.
The last of the Newton Heath allocated 'White Stripe' with red buffer beam liveried class 104 BRC&W dmu's - DMCL M53524 - makes a smoky departure upon leaving what is now a totally unrecognizable Manchester Victoria with a service for Blackpool North. These units with a White Strip down the body side indicated that they had modified suspension for fast running on express services to Blackpool, which probably meant very little when i took this with the influx of class 150 'Sprinter' new builds. 18th May 1985 Andrew J Crowther.
A BRCW Class 104 two-car DMU formed of cars M53524 & M53451 was passing over Farington Curve Junction with a well-filled late afternoon Preston to Ormskirk service on July 23rd 1985. The Newton Heath allocated set was a reform, with M53524 still wearing its white bodyside stripe from the days when it was part of a Manchester-Blackpool 'White Line' three-car set that included cars M59180 & M50472. M53524 was the last Class 104 car to retain the white stripe in service. The Newton Heath fleet of 'White Line' three-car 104's were a common sight in the 1970's along the busy Manchester Victoria to Blackpool North route which carried heavy commuter and leisure traffic. Six-car formations were the norm for weekday peak-time services and weekend workings in the Spring, Summer and Autumn. Martyn Hilbert.
A class 104 DMU at Preston on 24th July 1985 - the sandwich board on the platform states that its an Ormskirk service. Formed of 53524 (which has 'Newton Heath' written under the drivers window) and presumably 53451. Jonathan Hazan.

53525 on the rear of a Dunblane service at Falkirk Grahamston on the 30th September 1984. The centre car is presumably 59559 and the other power car is 53473, labeled set 104 451. Hamish Stevenson.
Ayr Variety. Largs station and an Ayr allocated BRCW Class 104 DMS Sc53525 is sitting at Platform 3. A Class 116 is visible in the background in the siding adjacent to Platform 1. However, the centre road has been lifted and is probably in advance of full scale track rationalisation and electrification. Probably January / February 1985. alicia hartman.
Class 104 DMS SC53525 at Ayr depot on the 31st March 1985. Jerry Glover.
A DMU line-up in Haymarket depot on March 9, 1986. On the left is a Class 107, in the middle 101307 (presumably with 53189 closest) and on the right a Class 104 with 53525 closest. Hamish Stevenson.
