3rd November 1990
Set: T408
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.

Set: T321
A hybrid DMU set, with cars 51859/59600/51144, at Coventry on a service to Stoke on 18 February 1993. I think this train was routed via Bedworth to Nuneaton and then via the WCML to its destination. It carries a set number of T321 (Tyseley). Lewis Bevan.

51860
26th May 1980
Following the final day of the three-day Rocket 150 Cavalcade at Rainhill on Monday 26th May 1980, and with the crowds gone, an 8-Car DMU lash-up on one of the frequent shuttle services from Manchester Victoria, consisting of a Class 115 suburban set an a pair of two-car Class 108's, were passing one of the grandstands being prepared for dismantling. The leading car was Rail Blue liveried Class 115 Driving Motor Brake Second M51860. The Morris Marina Van in the right foreground was belonging to the company that had installed the PA system for the commentary (done by Alan Pegler) during the cavalcade. Martyn Hilbert.

A Scarborough - Leicester service is seen at Clay Cross on 8 August 1987. The vehicles are noted as 51860 + 59724 + ? + 53894. Stuart Mackay Collection.
3rd February 1991
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.

Set: T409
Last days of dmus on the Cross City line. A November 1991 view of unit T409 (presumably 51860 59600 59367 53894) leaving Sutton Coldfield on a Four Oaks to Longbridge service. Services were electrified Feb 1992. This was the scene of an accident when a York - Bristol train derailed at speed killing 14, on 23/1/1955. Stephen Burdett.
