Set B430 W51368, W59520 and W51410 nearest on a Norwich to Birmingham at Padnal on July 25th 1987. This DMU set had been reallocated from Bristol to Tyseley. Nicholas Youngman.
Fake GWR liveried Class 117 (51410 + 59520 + 51368) is passing Newport Ebbw Jcn with a late afternoon Cardiff - Chepstow service on 26/09/1987. The DMU carries the number B430 which means it was a Bristol set. The train is passing the sad remains of Newport Ebbw Jnc diesel depot, this was a purpose built depot that catered for the numerous class 37's that were used on the South Wales coal trains but the decline of the coal industry meant that all requirements could be handled by Cardiff Canton and a few locos outstationed at Newport. Geoff Dowling.

I arrived at Stratford-upon-Avon on Saturday 19 July 1985 to catch the 08.12 train to Leamington Spa to find an unusual replacement for the usual single unit or pair of single units in the form of class 117 set B431 comprising 51411, 59521 and 51369. I assumed that this had been pinched by Tyseley to cover a shortage of their own sets after it had arrived at Birmingham New Street during the previous day. I sat in the first class compartment to take full advantage of the thicker padding and better backrests of the seats... Peter Tandy.
Class 117 set B431 (51369 + 59521 + 51411) worked trains between Leamington Spa on Stratford-upon-Avon on 19 July 1985. At Leamington Spa the procedure at the time was for trains arriving into platform 3 from the north to leave the station on the up line and then use the crossover just around the corner to reverse and come back either into platform 2 for Birmingham services or to run through the station before reversing again to gain bay platform 1 for Stratford. This picture shows B431 having completed the first reversal as it ran past the flower beds on platform 2. Peter Tandy.
