Hybrid Class 108 / 104 set BX489 (presumably 53932 + 59207 + 51569) at Bankend between Furness Vale and New Mills Newtown, whilst working a Buxton - Manchester Piccadilly service circa 1986 / 1987. Ian Docwra.
An unusual visitor to the Birmingham to Gloucester line on 16 June 1987 in the form of a 3-car Buxton class 108/104/108 unit and a 2-car Class 101. The leading unit was BX489, presumably 53932 + 59207 + 51569. The train was a Blackpool to Evesham private charter which was run by Lancashire Rail Ramblers with connecting buses to the Cotswolds. I must have had prior knowledge of this train from the weekly STN and was probably disappointed when either a class 45 of 47 failed to appear. Given the number of both locomotive classes available to photograph on this line in 1987 I am now far happier to have had this shot than a locomotive and stock. The little girl watching the train is now in her late 30s! My thanks to Paul Stewart and members of the BLS for information on the reason for the train's visit to Evesham. Peter Tandy.
Class 108 set CH373 (M53932 + M59207 + M51569) is on 2H07, the 14:07 to Manchester Piccadilly, while N669 (M53528 + M59187 + M53454) waits to return to Piccadilly at 14:34 on 2T42, 6/5/89. Kevin Dowd.

In platform 3 at Stratford-upon-Avon sometime in 1987 a 3 car Class 108 numbered T902 (presumably 53933 + 59387 + 51566) is on the front of the Midline Bubble which is conveniently positioned on the platform's curve so that its unique colour scheme is visible. Peter Tandy.

A Class 108 DMU arrived at Blaenau Ffestiniog, set CH634 (53933 + 51566) in March 1990. On Tour With the Class 13 Army.
I often had a drive over to Cosford in 1991 because of 1) the MGR traffic to and from Ironbridge Power Station still sometimes with class 20s in charge and 2) for the first generation DMUs on the Chester services. On 14 September 1991 class 108 T072 (53933 + 51566) was photographed in a lucky patch of sunshine on a largely cloudy morning as it slowed for the stop at the nearby station while working a Chester to Wolverhampton service. The bracket signal was the obvious attraction of this location and without it the shot would have been much less photogenic. Peter Tandy.

The Stratford-upon-Avon to Leamington Spa services saw many different classes of DMU but I didn't see many 108s. This set, T072 (53933 + 51566), was climbing Hatton Bank on 27 June 1992 as it went towards a red signal protecting the 15mph junction for the Stratford branch. Peter Tandy.
