A 3-car Class 116 set at Peartree on the outskirts of Derby. The set number in the cab window appears to read TS608 and so presumably 51144 + 59596 + 51131. Ian Francis.
Class 116 DMU set T608 with cars 51131 + 59613 + 51144 climbing Hatton Bank on 15 April 1987 with a Leamington to Birmingham Moor Street train. Fire damage to the cutting from a lineside fire is visible and it seems that the bridge over Dark Lane was all that stopped it spreading further south. Peter Tandy.
An excursion from Walsall - Barmouth is seen at Tywyn on the 20th April 1985. It was a six-can formation, a 116/Met-Camm/116 hybrid (presumably 53880 + 59533 + 53827) and three-car Class 116. Hamish Stevenson.
Early in the morning of 4 June 1986, while waiting for the weedkiller with 47 013 to arrive I took this shot of a class 116 (TS609, presumably 53894 + 59603 (a 127) + 53853) leaving the siding to form the 06.30 to Birmingham with the driver Oliver, whose surname I forget, standing in the cab. At this time, Stratford was a signing-on and stabling point and if one was lucky a unit would have been put in this siding on the previous night. This piece of track was not regularly used and I was pleased to get this shot with the lower quadrant signal in the "off" position, even though the sun was not yet properly on the track. Peter Tandy.
An interesting train on the North Warwickshire line to Birmingham in 1986 was the daily train booked to start at 08.13 from Henley-in-Arden which had arrived earlier and was routed into the bay platform; the only service so to do. This gave the rare opportunity to photograph a unit in the otherwise unused platform 3 and to take a picture with the signal in the clear position. I should like to have had a picture of the DMU nearer the signal but wanted to catch it for the onward journey. The train, formed of the usual class 116 3 car set on this occasions TS609 (presumably 53894 + 59603 (a 127) + 53853), is seen here on 29 August 1986 with the guard returning to his van in order to give the right of way to the driver. Peter Tandy.
A lengthy class 116 dmu passes High Wycombe on 15 July 1984, returning empty to Tyseley. It is believed to have worked to Welshpool the previous day. Leading is set TS610, presumably 53890 + 59603 + 53837. Robert28194.

On 7 September 1985, a derailment at Carnforth led to severe delays to trains between Scotland and England, resulting in this 6-car dmu formation running in the path of a the Glasgow / Dundee - Poole service between Birmingham and Reading. Seen at Oxford, closest is the distinct Class 116 set TS611 (53116/59611/53055). On the rear appears to be a 116/101/116 hybrid. On the right is a Class 121 bubble. Robert28194.
