A 2-Car Class 104 DMU with M53527 leading, passes Cocker Bar Farm as it runs between Midge Hall and Croston with a Preston to Ormskirk service on May 20th 1983. This was the period when these units had been reduced from three cars with the removal of the unpowered centre trailer car. The down Midge Hall distant signal against the farm access bridge has since been replaced by a reflective board. Martyn Hilbert.

The staff of the 1.25pm to Derby have a chit chat at the cab of M50528 before departure from platform 8 of Birmingham New Street on the 5th May 1962. Michael Mensing.
Whilst alighted passengers make their way down the platform, the crew have a conversation in the cab of Class 104 Driving Motor Composite M50528 whilst it was stood at Bolton leading a six-car Blackpool North to Manchester Victoria service on June 23rd 1979. This was very much a routine daily sight along this busy route in the 1970's, with the BRCW Class 104's working most services to and from the Fylde Coast. Martyn Hilbert.
A BRCW Class 104 two-car DMU formed of cars M50528 & M50454 was approaching Bamber Bridge with a Preston to Colne service on June 4th 1982. The leading car, Driving Motor Second Lavatory M50528 was once part of three-car Manchester-Blackpool set, and still retained its white bodyside line from the days when it made countless journeys along the busy commuter route from the Fylde Coast to Manchester Victoria, until the 104's were ousted by cascaded Swindon built Class 120 units. Class 25 25133 was just visible to the right of the DMU, stood in the headshunt at the end of the goods loop/District Civil Engineers sidings. Martyn Hilbert.
A two-car Class 104 (thought to be M50528 leading) and two-car Met-Camm arrives into Bare Lane station on 27 August 1982. Lancaster is on the destination blind, likely on a service from Morecambe. Stuart Mackay Collection.

Heading down the gradient between Disley and Middlewood on 6th May 1989 is a BRC&W Newton Heath allocated 3 car set N669 (53528, 59187, 53454), with the 104 DMUPG "Buxton 104 Farewell" on a special Buxton-Manchester Piccadilly non stop run. By this time the 104's had been displaced by 108's which in turn were being displaced by the new Sprinters, so this might well have been the last visit of a 104 to Buxton. Andrew J Crowther.
