April 1977
50059
Class 116 DMU set TS504 (presumably 50059 + 59004 + 50104) at Lye station in early April 1977 displaying Birmingham New Street on the destination blind. Michael Mensing.
7th July 1984
53059
A Class 116 DMU at University, Birmingham on 07/07/84. Partly obscured, the set number TSx04 and the corner damage suggest this is set TS504 and 53059, the 127 centre car is probably 59610. Steve Jones.
TS505
12th July 1976
50094
Freshly refurbished Class 116 DMU set TS505 (presumably 50094 + 59005 + 50065) seen in Small Heath station on 12 July 1976. Michael Mensing.
September 1976
50065
Refurbished Class 116 set TS505 (presumably 50065 + 59005 + 50094) at Dungay in early September 1976 heading for Birmingham Moor Street. Michael Mensing.
4th September 1976
59005
M59005 is the centre car in this refurbished Class 116 set arriving at Wood End on September 4th, 1976, with the 2.10pm Birmingham (Moor St) - Stratford-upon-Avon. The power car appears to be M50094 which would make it set TS505, refurbished in June 1976. Michael Mensing.
1977

M50065 leads refurbished set TS505 when seen at St Andrews in mid-1977. Michael Mensing.
June 1977
50094
A service heading for Kidderminster is seen at Sutton Coldfield in June 1977, formed of refurbished Class 116 set TS505 (M50094 and presumably M59005 + M50065). Michael Mensing.
August 1978

Refurbished Class 116 set TS505 led by 50065 (and presumably with 59005 + 50094) seen at Small Heath Bridge in August 1978. Michael Mensing.
1st October 1979
50065
Class 116 set TS505 (50065 closest) at Stourbridge Junction on 1/10/79. Steve Jones.
24th May 1986
53094
Class 116/127 DMU set TS505 (53094 + 59638 + 53066) stabled at Leicester on 24 May 1986. Stuart Mackay Collection.
26th November 1986
53094
First generation DMUs were not common on the line between Coventry and Birmingham New Street and this is possibly my only such shot. The train is showing "Special" on its cab panel and that it the only information I have about it. The unit is TS505 (presumably 53094 + 59638 + 53066), a class 116 set with a class 127 centre car, passing the car park at Berkswell station on 26 November 1986. The picture was taken using a Ricoh compact camera with automatic exposure on Ilford FP4 film and it appears that the poor light was almost a bit too much for the asa 125 rating. The front of the cab seems to have gained a dent at some point Peter Tandy.
TS506
10th February 1985
53840
Two of Tyseley's suburban 3-car units have just visited the fuelling point on 10/02/1985. They had pulled up to the bridge from which the picture was taken and will now move onto the carriage sidings and join the other units to the right of the yard. Closest is set TS506, 53840 and presumably 59612 + 53100, a 116/127/116 hybrid. Geoff Dowling.
10th February 1985
53840
Having been serviced and fuelled 2 three car sets are about to move onto the carriage sidings at Tyseley on 10/02/1985, the leading car is 53840. To the left is the mound of scrap indicating the rail connected business of Allan Rowland metals, today his board still faces Tyseley station although the yard has been closed for many years. The station is as it was before it was became faux GWR on it's last refurbishment when the platform gained ridiculous flower planters that nobody maintains and are a magnet for litter. The dark line in front of the train is a shadow of a lamp post, lengthy in the low winter sun. Geoff Dowling.
8th March 1986
53840
This class 116 at Stourbridge Junction is TS506 (presumably 53840 + 59612 + 53100), making the journey from Birmingham New Street to Kidderminster on 8 March 1986. Despite the frequency of passenger trains on this route and the relatively large number of trains from the Bescot to Stourbridge freight line, the Down Goods Loop wouldn't have seen a huge amount of use. This was because anything from the fright line needing to have been held would simply have waited at Stourbridge North Junction. Freights from the Old Hill line, although fewer in number, may well have been turned inside here although the coating of rust on the rails suggests that this wasn't a daily occurrence. I also think than ECS workings, especially when the single coach set used on the Stourbridge Town shuttles was swapped for fuelling and maintenance at Tyseley, would have been routed along the loop to await a path across the main lines to the sidings. Peter Tandy.
TS507
1976
50099
M50099 leads set Class 116 set TS507 (presumably with 59007 + 50069) at Sutton Coldfield in Autumn 1976, with a Swindon Cross Country set on the rear. Michael Mensing.
19th August 1978
50099
A recently refurbished Derby class 116 unit at Swindon 19/8/78, containing 50099 + 59007 + 50069 which formed set TS507. Sparegang.
14th September 1978
50069
My note says "Last train of the day at Redditch". Taken on September 14, 1978, the timetable was similar to that three years earlier, this makes it the 18.35 to Birmingham, the fourth and final train of the day. Set TS507, presumably 50069 + 59007 + 50099. Jeremy Chapter.
Unknown Date
50099
Tyseley DMU set TS507 Class 116 catches the setting sun approaching Bescot station. Presumably 50099 + 59007 + 50069. Ian Charles.
1987
53099
Class 116 set TS507 (53099 presumably closest) in Blake Street station with a Longbridge service in 1987. John Law.
TS508
8th May 1980
50904
Set TS508 at Birmingham New Street on May 8, 1980, M50904 is closest. Steve Jones.
