An interesting Combination of DMU's is seen at Luxulyan Station possibly on a Newquay to Par service on the 21st of July 1973. The leading car is labelled as set P356 and thus it is likely to be Class 116 DMBS 50865. It is followed by two Cross-Country sets, the roof vents indicate that the first is a 120 and the second a 119. Then there is another plain blue car in the rear. The KDH Archive.
A three-car Derby built Class 116 DMU has arrived at Southminster on the 16.5 mile branch from Wickford May 1st 1980. Driving Motor Brake Second E50865 leads in this view looking towards the buffer stops. The station retained its run-round loop, as the branch was visited by nuclear flask trains servicing Bradwell Nuclear Power Station. Visible in this view is a distant shunting disc signal complete with yellow band. The branch was electrified in 1986 and is now known as the Crouch Valley Line. Martyn Hilbert.

Tyseley DMU set T332 at Water Orton on 28 March 1988. Class 116 DMBS 53865 leads, still carrying an E prefix from a previous allocation to Stratford almost two years previous. The centre car is presumably Class 127 TSL 59598 and the rear DMBS Class 116 53073. Leicester is on the destination blind and the former set number board in the cab window now has the date 4/4/88 and MIDLINE chalked on it. Stuart Mackay Collection.
Suburban set T332 (presumably 53865 + 59598 + 53073) at Machynlleth on 6th July 1988, along with 150 142. Nigel Menzies.
This is Claverdon station, between Stratford-upon-Avon and Leamington, on 6 May 1991. My photo was taken while I was waiting for 71000 "Duke of Gloucester" returning the "Royal Shakespeare Shuttle" to Paddington. The DMU approaching on a local service is a hybrid unit with Class 116 DMBS 53865 standing on for the regular DMS. The set number is T315 (Tyseley), and the other vehicles are presumably 59745 + 51352. Lewis Bevan.

Class 116 53867, set number T702 (presumably with 59372 + 53920), is seen in all over blue livery at Tyseley on 17.05.1986. This was one of the last Class 116 sets to carry all over blue livery and was withdrawn in this livery. Andy Cole.
Still in BR blue livery, Tyseley Class 116 DMU set TS702 (presumably 53867 + 59372 + 53920) sits in the bay platform - platform 4 - at Hereford station on 24th May 1986. John Crooks.
Still in BR blue livery, Tyseley class 116 DMU set TS702 (presumably 53867 + 59372 + 53920) heads into Hereford from Shelwick Junction with a train from Birmingham on 24th May 1986. John Crooks.
Tyseley's class 116 unit T702 (53867 and presumably 59372 + 53920) stands in platform 3 at Stratford-upon-Avon on 7 June 1986 with the 08.30 to Birmingham Moor Street and before the driver had returned to the cab after shunting the train from platform 1 and changed the lights to white. At this time several DMUs were stabled overnight in the platforms here as the station office was a crew signing-on point with its own allocation of drivers and guards. A class 121 single car unit is just visible behind T702 waiting to shunt into platform 1 and work Leamington Spa trains. In the winter the units were left with their engines idling all night, possibly because they wouldn't have started on a frosty morning, and a cloud of dense stinking diesel exhaust often hung over the station area.
