An unusual visitor to Hereford, at that time, in the form of a Class 114 'Derby Heavyweight' DMU, set T223 (presumably 54040 + 53006), sits in bay platform 4 at Hereford station. Photo taken sometime between 5th & 8th June 1989. Paul James.
This is a colour version of B & W shot image 24444 showing class 114 T026 (54010 + 53006) at Stratford-upon-Avon dated 11 January 1990 but after the staff member had moved away. The train is the 17:07 to Leamington. The colour of the sky hasn't been manipulated but is a consequence of the long exposure, 20 seconds at f5.6 on 100asa film, needed to get a well-exposed image in the days before very bright LED platform lights Peter Tandy.
At Stratford-upon-Avon on 11 January 1990 platform 1 contains class 117 T309 formed of cars 51372 + 59490 + 51414 was preparing to leave for Birmingham Moor Street. The length of the exposure can be judges by the "ghosts" of passengers jostling around to join the train. Class 114 T026 (54010 visible) stood in platform 2 waiting to form an evening train to Leamington Spa. Peter Tandy.
One of my favourite times of day for photography was when it was dark enough to require a tripod for time exposure (pre full-frame digital equipment!) but with some light left in the sky. This image from Stratford-upon-Avon was taken at Stratford-upon-Avon on 11 January 1990 as class 114 T026 (54010 + 53006) stood in platform 2 waiting to form an evening train to Leamington Spa. One of the Stratford drivers, Oliver, is on P1 while the train driver relaxes for a few minutes as he has nearly 30 minutes to wait until departure time. Peter Tandy.

Class 114 T026 (54010 + 53006) at Stratford-upon-Avon and taken on the late morning of 19 March 1990. The unit would have later formed the 12.12 to Leamington Spa. Prominent in the picture are the gasholders, still in use at that time, and the mix of lower and upper quadrant semaphore signals every sign of which have now gone. Peter Tandy.
In 1990 some Derby Heavyweight DMMUs were allocated to Tyseley and were often used on the infrequent shuttle service between Leamington Spa and Stratford-upon-Avon. On 27 April 1990 I went to the lineside near where I lived at the time and took shot of T026 (presumably 54010 + 53006) about to arrive at the station with the 07.30 from Leamington. The Down Goods Loop was about to be disconnected and then lifted and the associated smaller arm on the signal gantry removed. There were few opportunities to take a shot with this arm lowered in my time photographing there I have. This was done for me by a kind signalman with whom I was friendly. Peter Tandy.
