Longbridge station was heavily shadowed on 3 November 1990 as hybrid set T408 (51859 + 59643 + 59617 + 53902) left on the final part of its journey to Redditch on the Birmingham Cross City line. Having a 20 minute frequency throughout the day the line was interesting for anyone wanting to photograph first generation DMUs with many different classes of vehicle appearing as Tyseley depot struggled to keep enough sets in service. Peter Tandy.
Three two coach Class 115/108 units (51679 + 54259 / 51657 + 54224 / 54499 + 51652) are seen here at Claydon LN&E Junction on 10 November 1990 with the second Aylesbury to Milton Keynes shopper specials of 1990. The train had travelled via Quainton Road and Calvert and was about to pass Claydon Loop on the way to Bletchley and its destination. The signal on the extreme right shows where the line from Bicester enters the loop which at this time was used by such trains as Whatley to Wolverton stone, the Bath and Bristol to Calvert household rubbish containers and the much-missed Akeman Street fertiliser vans. Peter Tandy.

51868 from set T413 at Nottingham platform 4 in February 1991. David Page.
A rather bleak view of "round the back" at Doncaster Works on 3rd February 1991. M51860 and M51370 look fairly forlorn in the cold and damp. I don't know if they were here for disposal or repairs. The one thing I didn't notice until I scanned the original slide was the lump of blue metal on the right. This is actually a roof panel from one of the long-departed Deltics which were cut up here some eight or nine years earlier. Syd Young.
Weather conditions on Saturday 10 February 1991 were such that EMUs on the Euston-Northampton-Birmingham route were experiencing operating problems with snow causing problems wit the sliding doors. As a result at least one Class 115 dmu was borrowed from Bletchley depot to operate a Rugby-Northampton-Milton Keynes shuttle so that Wolverton/Northampton/Long Buckby passengers could change onto main line trains at Rugby or MK. This is one set, with driving car 51857, passing Kingsthorpe on a Rugby-Milton Keynes shuttle train. The two snow-covered tracks in the foreground are the branch from Northampton to Market Harborough which closed in 1981, but had still not been lifted 10 years later. Lewis Bevan.

Tyseley's set T420, a mixed class 115/116/127 formation with class 115 DMBS 51892 on the rear of class 116 TS 59032, class 127 TSL 59607 and class 116 DMS 53092, passes through a dull and rainy Aston station on 16/Feb/1991. Robert Chilton.
A class 115 set about to set off for Marylebone from Banbury in March 1991. Ian Buck.
An overview of the scene just to the north of Aylesbury on 3 March 1991 at a time when the through line was freight-only and used mostly by trains going to and from Calvert. There are a few Class 115 vehicles stabled and maybe a Class 108 DMSL with doors removed. In 2022 passenger services travel through this site, albeit drastically changed, on their way to Aylesbury Parkway station. Peter Tandy.
