The unit had previously been allocated to Cardiff Canton and had been transferred to Newton Heath in September 1987, at a time when there was much flux in the surviving members of the first generation DMU fleet to provide cover for errant class 142's, the better examples appearing in parts of the country that they had never previously worked, the situation being eased as the new BREL York Class 150/2 Sprinter fleet came into service.

With frost still on the sleepers at lunchtime, a three-car Class 116 Suburban DMU with Driving Motor Second M53920 leading (presumably with 59372 + 53867), was darkening the sky as it climbed the gradient from Farington Curve Junction with a Preston to Ormskirk service on December 9th 1987. The DMU was passing the site of the former Moss Lane Junction that ran straight ahead towards Lostock Hall at this location. Until closure in 1972, it enabled trains to and from East Lancashire to access the former main line to Ormskirk and Liverpool Exchange without running via Preston. In the foreground is the part dismantled former Up line to Midge Hall, taken out of use in 1983, it took many years for it to be lifted and the track materials to be recovered. Martyn Hilbert.
