116 DMU

April 1971

In April 1971 Birmingham Moor Street was a sleepy backwater with a handful of services using it. A class 116 waits for the North Warks line. Stephen Burdett.


116 DMU

15th June 1971

Silvertown station on 15 June 1971, the train is the 15.33 from Stratford (Low Level) to North Woolwich. The road has changed little since the removal of the trolleybuses a few years earlier. On the right can be seen the tracks of the Silvertown Tramway, which still saw some use, and one of the Tate & Lyle company's vans, in the characteristic dark blue livery that company used to use for its road transport. The brick building with the faded blue nameboard is the base of the former signalbox, and the cutaway in the end of the platform canopy was to enable drivers of up trains to see the lower repeater arms of a tall junction signal which stood roughly where the short wooden fence is in this view. This indicated to drivers whether they were to continue straight on under the subway beneath the dock, or bear left over the swing bridge. The bridge was sometimes preferred for freight trains as the gradients were not so steep. Tom Burnham.


116 DMU

3rd July 1971

Now this is proper rolling stock for a Rail Tour, no seat reservation, proper loading facilities, and if the heating is not working you have material at hand to light a fire. Location is Maesteg Llynfi Junction on the 3rd of July 1971. The tour was the Branch Line Society Dulais and Llynfi Valleys Tour, which started in Cardiff and used, apart from this interlude, a Class 116 DMU seen on the left. Loco is pannier tank 9642 now on the Dean Forest Railway. The KDH Archive.

116 DMU

27th May 1972

Three class 116 DMUs combine on this Birmingham New Street to Hereford service as it passes Smethwick West on 27/5/1972. Whilst services in those days were not frequent, I would imagine that this was to move I or 2 of the units to Kidderminster or Worcester. The Rowley Hills can be seen in the distance. Stephen Burdett.


116 DMU

June 1972

The appears to be a Class 116 set, seen crossing the Barmouth Bridge in June 1972. Mel Smith.


116 DMU

June 1972

A Cardiff Class 116 set at Barmouth in June 1972. The exhausts and the driver in the closest cab suggests it is heading to the right, despite the tail lamp. Mel Smith.


116 DMU

August 1972

Class 116 Erdington in August 1972. Erdington was my local station when staying with my aunt on trips down from Scotland. I'm glad I took this mundane every day shot now which is one of my favourites. A long frame derby Suburban DMU is arriving with a New Street to Four Oaks or Lichfield City working. In those days it wasn't a Cross-City line (in fact back then there were only a few services a day to Redditch) and trains took up valuable platform dwell time at BNS while drivers changed ends. Alistair Ness.
