13th September 1980
From platform 8 on Doncaster station on 13th September 1980 there is a good view of the Plant, with a line of diesel multiple units are on the closest line (a 104 nearest) while a two car Class 114 sets off on the right. The station. opened in 1848, was joint Great Northern & Great Central Railways, then LNER who rebuilt it in 1938. Pete LG99.
20th September 1980
British Rail class 114 diesel unit at Orton Mere, Nene Valley Railway 20 September 1980. Over the course of this "Eurosteam" weekend, a number of shuttle services were operated to the NVR at Orton Mere from Peterborough, the first time this had been done. The numbers of the DMU coaches are not recorded. Jeremy Chapter.
28th September 1980
In refurbished livery, Class 114 two-car DMU formed of E50001 & E56043 was stood at a run-down looking New Holland Town with a service from New Holland Pier to Cleethorpes on Sunday September 28th 1980. The station here and the 1,375 Yard Pier and the station at the Pier Head (and the connecting ferry service across the River Humber to Hull) was closed some nine months after this image was recorded. The last day of service was June 1st 1981, commensurate with the opening of the Humber Suspension Bridge. This place was in a time-warp, with BR Eastern Region blue enamel signage and mechanical signalling including some lower quadrants. This was my one and only visit to New Holland Pier, and my regret is that I did not have a ride on the DMU, photograph the Ferry, or by a ticket as a souvenir. Martyn Hilbert.
28th September 1980
Having travelled down the 1375ft long Pier from New Holland Pier Head, A Class 114 2-Car DMU formed of E56043 & E50001 in refurbished livery, stands at New Holland Town with a service to Cleethorpes on Sunday 28th September 1980. With the opening of the Humber Suspension Bridge in June 1981, and the subsequent withdrawal of the ferry service from New Holland Pier to Hull, the stations and the pier were all closed on June 24th 1981. Martyn Hilbert.
28th September 1980
A refurbished Class 114 DMU formed of cars E56043 & E50001 arrives at New Holland Town with a service from Cleethorpes to New Holland Pier on September 28th 1980. There is much of interest in this view, including a pair of lower quadrant signals, the North to West curve towards Barton-On-Humber, Barrow Road Signal box and the level crossing giving vehicular access to the Pier and the ferry service across the Humber to Hull. Martyn Hilbert.
28th September 1980
In refurbished livery, A Class 114 2-Car DMU, formed of cars E50001 & E56043, waits to depart from a run-down looking New Holland Pier with a service to Cleethorpes on Sunday 28th September 1980. The linkspan connecting the station to the ferry landing stage can be seen to the right of the station building. A Morris Minor and a Mark 3 Ford Cortina are parked behind the buffer stops. In this period only one track was in situ at this end of the Pier. Martyn Hilbert.
28th September 1980
Class 114 Derby Heavyweight 2-Car DMU formed of cars E50001 & E56043 (E50001 was the first built, emerging from Derby in 1956), departs from New Holland Pier and runs along the 1,375 yard structure towards its next stop at New Holland Town on September 28th 1980. There is a air of dereliction all around, the pier closed to passenger trains following the opening of the Humber Suspension Bridge in June 1981. Martyn Hilbert.
29th September 1980
On this dull, cloudy afternoon at New Holland Pier on 29/9/80, this 2-car unit in Refurbished livery will form the 16:41 New Holland Pier - Cleethorpes, whilst behind is a Class 105 2-car unit in BR rail blue livery which will form the 16:45 New Holland Pier - Barton-on-Humber.

16th October 1980
The very rare sight of a DMU (classes 114 & 105) on a Liverpool Street - Cambridge service: E50003, E56014, E56114 and E51294 head the 12.05 Liverpool Street - Cambridge at Hackney Downs presumably due to shortage of loco or stock. The same unit worked Up on the 09.27 Cambridge - Liverpool Street and it wasn't doing too badly at only 8 minutes late! 16/Oct/1980. Robert Chilton.
24th October 1980
Despite succumbing to closure in September 1961, the platforms, station buildings and even the waiting shelter canopy were still intact at Cowbit on 24th October 1980, some two years before the line from March to Spalding closed completely. This Lincoln based Derby Heavyweight Class 114 DMU formed of cars E56043 & E50001 was working the 13.50 Cambridge - Doncaster local service, seen heading for its next stop at Spalding. In the early 1970s, the passenger service on the joint line was largely long distance loco hauled services, notably the Yarmouth - York, Newcastle - Norwich and Harwich - Manchester 'Boat Train' all used this route. In around 1974 DMUs took over being mainly supplied by Norwich and Lincoln depots, but occasionally Tyneside and Calder Valley sets would make appearances. Gerard Fletcher.
30th October 1980
The 10.26 Doncaster - Cambridge dmu service, one of three southbound passenger services still serving the joint line in 1980. The setting is Murrow West. This was at one time the site of a flat crossing with the M&GN Peterborough - Wisbech - Sutton Bridge line on which, until its closure in 1959, the hamlet of Murrow had the extravagant facilities of a further station named Murrow East. On 30th October 1980 motoring past are Lincoln based Class 114 Derby 'heavyweight' set E50046 + E56026 leading Norwich allocated Cravens Class 105 unit E56480 + E51261 (set 65). Gerard Fletcher.

The 12.38 Doncaster - Cambridge dmu passes Whitemoor Jn on December 13th 1980.

A Class 114 DMU, DTCL E56049 closest, stabled in one of the centre roads at Sheffield on Wednesday 31 December 1980. David Russon.
1981
A Class 114 set with E50047 on the rear, seen at Pontefract Baghill in 1981. The destination blind reads Sheffield so it's probably one of the infrequent York - Sheffield direct services. Note the South Yorkshire Transport logo. Graeme Phillips Collection.
winter circa 1980/1981
Sheffield, South Yorkshire, Winter approx 1980-81. A typical grey winter day and three first generation diesel multiple units (a 114 on the left, a 108 or 114 hiding behind the pillars in the middle and a Met-Camm on the right) grace the platforms of Sheffield Midland station. From the steam heating leaks the train in platform 6 is probably a Peak hauled train heading south. Pete LG99.
1981
A Class 114 and 101, both in refurbished livery, sit in Sheffield station in 1981. Graham Baker.
1981
Spalding station on the Joint Line in 1981, with a Class 114 and a Class 105 on the left.
