50957
25th May 1987
A location less often visited by most modern traction photographers in the 1970s and ‘80s was Barrow-in-Furness. On Monday May 25 1987 53957 + 54236 arrive at the station (which was rebuilt after wartime bomb damage) with the 1337 Millom-Lancaster. Mel Holley.
9th February 1990
Believed to be an empty coaching stock (ECS) move, cars E53957 E54236 are captured at Millom (Cumbria) on 9/2/90. These were part of the batch of Class 108s that had long been allocated to Kingmoor (KD) depot, Carlisle, but were transferred to Heaton (HT) depot, Newcastle, upon closure of the former in May 1988. They continued to operate Cumbria services until displaced by Class 153s in 1991. Graeme Phillips Collection.
13th September 1990
A Class 108 set formed of 53957 and 54236 are seen departing (12 minutes late) from Seaham on the 11:03 Middlesbrough - Hexham, 13/6/90. This was one of the majority of Kingmoor (Carlisle - KD) depot's units that were transferred to Heaton (Newcastle - HT) depot in May 1988 when KD closed (the remainder went to Chester - CH), but still intended for use in Cumbria. Thereafter, these power-trailer sets appeared on certain generously timed Newcastle-Carlisle services, presumably as a means of getting to / from their new depot. They also made occasional appearances on other north-east local services, but their inferior power:weight ratio meant they usually struggled to keep time on Pacer schedules, as was probably the case on the service illustrated. Graeme Phillips.

50958
26th June 1991
A dirty E53958 and E54227 are seen awaiting departure from Carlisle with a service to Whitehaven on 26/06/91. A fleet of 2-car power-trailer Class 108 DMUs, allocated to Kingmoor (KD) depot, Carlisle, were the mainstay of Cumbrian Coast services for many years. Upon the closure of that depot in May 1988, most were transferred to Heaton (HT) depot, Newcastle, still intended to continue with Cumbrian services (the rest went to Chester (CH) depot for services in north Lancashire). They lasted until November 1991, when finally replaced by then newly-converted Class 153 single car units. Graeme Phillips Collection.

50959
July 1977
A Class 108 power-trailer set and a Class 105 power twin is seen north east of Brierfield in July 1977. The closest vehicle appears to be M50959, allocated to Carlisle, the right route indicator glass appears to be broken and taped up, the left side is painted yellow. Michael Mensing.

22nd June 1988
53959 + 54243 arrive at Newcastle on 22/06/1988 with a service from the Tyne Valley. This was one of the majority of Class 108s transferred from Kingmoor (KD) depot, Carlisle, to Heaton (HT) depot, Newcastle, in May 1988, upon closure of the former. They were still intended for work in Cumbria, but, being based in the north-east, made frequent appearances in the region, especially certain generously timed Carlisle-Newcastle services, presumably to allow them to come to their home depot for maintenance. They finished working in Cumbria in November 1991, replaced by then newly converted Class 153 single car Sprinters. Graeme Phillips Collection.
