A DMU formation arrives into Manchester Victoria in May 1988. Closest is Class 108 set N602, presumably 54264 + 53970, the third vehicle is a Class 104. Stuart Mackay Collection.
Class 108 DTC 54264, set number N602 presumably with 53970, is seen at Tyseley on 09.07.1988 complete with Manchester symbol on the bodyside. Andy Cole.
Class 108 53970, set number N602 presumably with 54264, is seen stabled at Tyseley on 16.07.1988. It was allocated to Newton Heath at the time and was probably down to use the wheel lathe. Andy Cole.
On a cold Winter evening, a Class 108 two-car DMU formed of DMBS M53970 & DTSL M56264 was stood in platform 6 at Preston with a Barrow-In-Furness service on February 18th 1989. The 108's were once synonomous with the Cumbrian Coast route, a large allocation being once based at Carlisle that had bars fitted over the door droplights due to restricted clearances on the Maryport to Carlisle section of the route. Martyn Hilbert.
A well filled two-car Class 108 (Newton Heath Depot set N604), formed of cars M53974 & M54503 was stood on the Up Slow at Leyland station with a tea-time Blackpool North to Manchester Victoria service on August 16th 1988. Martyn Hilbert.
A Derby Class 108 two-car DMU formed of cars M54258 & M53975 (N605) was passing the Cocker Bar at Ulnes Walton whilst running through the West Lancashire countryside between Midge Hall and Croston with a Preston to Ormskirk service on April 25th 1989. The set lasted in service until May 1990 and was subsequently scrapped by Booth's of Rotherham. Martyn Hilbert.

A three-car Class 108 formed of three brake vehicles including a centre trailer coach (TBSL), was awaiting departure from Skipton with a service to Bradford Forster Square on January 5th 1991. The leading car was M53943 and the rear driving car was M53971. It would appear this was a cobbled together set of serviceable cars in the period when the troublesome Class 142 fleet was giving the first generation DMU fleet an extended period of operation. M53943 was carrying the set number N607 on the cab front, whilst at the rear, M53971 was displaying set number T203. Martyn Hilbert.
DTS(L) M54261 (presumably with M53978) leads a four-car formation calling at Kent's Bank (Cumbria) with the 12:07 Lancaster-Barrow, 11/6/88. The Class 108s allocated to Carlisle Kingmoor (KD) depot were the mainstay of local services in Cumbria and North Lancashire for many years. In May 1988, shortly before this image was taken, KD closed, and the fleet was split between Heaton (HT) depot at Newcastle for Cumbian Coast / Windermere routes, and Chester (CH) for north Lancashire routes, such as the service illustrated. Graeme Phillips Collection.
Class 108 Driving Trailer Second Lavatory (DTSL) car M54261 was leading the eight-car Blackpool North to Carlisle Sunday Dalesrail service, passing Lostock Hall Junction on September 7th 1988. The service was made up of three pairs of Class 108's with a Class 104 bringing up the rear. Martyn Hilbert.

With a thunderstorm and heavy rain receding in the background, First and Second generation DMU's were stood in the South facing bay platforms at Preston Station on July 2nd 1988. In bay 3C was a two-car Derby Class 108 formed of cars M54253 & M53981 that was working services to Ormskirk, whilst alongside in 4C were Class 142's 142 055 & 142 010 with a service to Liverpool Lime Street.

Class 108 DMU set N613 (presumably 54221 + 53986) at Rose Hill station in August 1988. Walter Burt.
A two-car Class 108 at Kirkby Stephen in March 1989. The DTSL closest carries set number N615 and so is likely to be 54196 transferred from Newton Heath to Neville Hill that month, presumably with DMBS 53606. George Woods.
