Nottingham station on a wet and windy 2nd August 1978. This 2-car Class 114 dmu has just arrived with service from Skegness. I had arrived in Nottingham about 40 minutes earlier on the 09.35 Carlisle-Nottingham, hauled by 45 037, and was awaiting the 15.10 Nottingham-St Pancras (45140) to take me to Leicester. The Class 114 was formed 50044/56030. 50044 was new in March 1957, when it was allocated to Lincoln (40A). It stayed at Lincoln until October 1987, when it was transferred to Tyseley (TS). It was withdrawn from service at TS in October 1991 (during the Sprinter Revolution) and was scrapped by Mayer Newman at Snailwell. 56030 was new, also to 40A, in January 1957, and stated at LN until withdrawal in January 1986. 56030 (by then renumbered to 54030) was scrapped at Berry's yard in Leicester.

Class 114 vehicles 53044 + 54043 were reallocated from Lincoln to Tyseley (their first move since new) at the start of October 1987 becoming set T234. Here the set is seen a few weeks later on 17 November in Bristol Temple Meads and was noted as ready to work the 12:53 to Severn Beach. Stuart Mackay Collection.

By April 1990 class 114 units had largely taken over local trains between Stratford-upon-Avon and Leamington Spa. This is T024 (53044 + 54043) in platform 2 at Stratford on 30 April with the 17.12 departure with a couple of tourists appearing to be asking if this was their service. The people on the platform were waiting for the 17.30 train to Birmingham which was about to arrive in platform 1. Peter Tandy.
A rather indistinct shot from a passing train of cl.114 nos.53044/54043 at Leamington on 5/7/90. Despite what the platform clock says, the time was ca. 15.50 and the unit may have formed an incoming service from either Hatton or Stratford-upon-Avon. This was during the period of four years or so at the end of the class's life when the remaining units were based at Tyseley (apart from a few which had gone into parcels service). They moved here in 1987 after a thirty-year stint based at Lincoln, their only home up to that point. Leonard Rogers.
Class 114 T024 (53044 + 54043) was in the soon to be lifted Cold Store Siding alongside platform 3 at Stratford-upon-Avon on 24 November 1990. It was unusual to see a DMU here on a Sunday at that date as there was no Sunday service to the station then, so I assume that it had failed and was waiting either for a fitter to arrive the next day or to be dragged back to Tyseley. Class 47 47827 was just arriving to take out the VSOE dining train with 47807 which had come into the station earlier. Peter Tandy.
