54026 at Cambridge. Undated, but the missing windows suggests the vehicle is out of use so circa late 1989 or early 1990, possibly with 53035. Malcolm Clements.

The rare appearance of a Class 114 'Derby Heavyweight' two-car DMU, formed of cars E54027 & E53019, stabled in Croft Street Sidings at Preston on May 3rd 1987. The following day it worked a Blackpool North - Manchester Victoria service. This was the period when faults on relatively new Class 142's were causing the cobbling together/transfer and reinstatement of first generation DMU sets, prior to the introduction of Class 150/2 Sprinters in sufficient quantities. Martyn Hilbert.
The rare appearance of a Class 114 'Derby Heavyweight' Two-Car DMU in the Preston area for a few brief days in the Spring of 1987. Formed of cars E54027 & E53019, the unit was stood on the Up Fast at Leyland Station with an early morning Blackpool North to Manchester Victoria service on May 4th 1987. The 114's were synonymous with services in Lincolnshire and South Yorkshire and were not common visitors to Preston. This was the period when errant Class 142's saw first generation DMU's having an extended period of operation. First introduced in 1956, the last of the Class 114's were withdrawn from passenger service in 1992. Martyn Hilbert.
Mainly associated with Lincolnshire, some of the Derby built heavyweight units were subsequently moved away. Inevitably in its quest for non-standardisation, Tyseley received some. Here, trailer 54027 leads a Corby service into Kettering on 7/1/88. The car park to the right was the site of the steam shed. Mike Dean.
Class 114 DMU set T227 (54027 + 53019) sits in Doncaster station on November 11th, 1988. They had been transferred to Tyseley from Lincoln in October 1987. Rex Holt.
I took this picture of class 114 T227 (54027 + 53019) in the bay platform at Rugby station on 16 September 1989 shortly after it had arrived from Coventry. It was quite an experience to travel on this unit as it ran flat out up the main line for the whole journey instead of its usual stop-start saunter between stations on suburban lines. The smell of very hot engines was very evident in the bay as was the sound of them clicking as they cooled. Peter Tandy.

This picture was taken at Bishopton, just outside Stratford-upon-Avon, on 28 March 1990 long before the Parkway station was built and not long after the A46 link road was opened. It shows class 114 T027 (54027 + 53019) passing Stratford East's fixed down distant signal with a train from Leamington Spa later to form the 12.12 back to the spa town. Peter Tandy.
At Droitwich Spa a 2 coach class 114 DMU formed of 54027 + 53019 works a Birmingham via Kidderminster service on 27 April 1991. When I took this photograph the garden on the station was well-tended and looked after by the staff but in 2020 the undergrowth and trees along the platform had taken over. Peter Tandy.

A train of two class 114 units, DTCL E56028 nearest the camera calls at New Holland Pier station en route from Cleethorpes to Barton on Humber. This section of line was closed when the Humber Bridge opened and the ferry service to Hull ceased. This photo was taken in the spring of 1981. Tony Walmsley.
Two trainspotters, cameras at the ready, prepare to snap for posterity the 14.30 Cambridge - Lincoln Central dmu, formed of Lincoln based Derby Heavyweight set E56028 (nearest the camera) trailing E50023, as it departs from March on a gloomy Saturday November 27th 1982 - the final day of services on the March - Spalding section. Gerard Fletcher.
