Tyseley allocated three car class 117 DMU T308 (cars 51413, 59509 and 51371) seen entering Worcester Shrub Hill past a colourful collection of semaphore signals in the summer of 1990. Bob Belcher.
An added bonus for the photographer visiting Cosford was the presence of conveniently placed semaphore signals. It was a shame that the majority of the GWR-style lower quadrants had been replaced by the time I was going here but they were still better than the modern alternative. On 29 November 1990 class 117 DMU T308 (51371 + 59509 + 51413) was pictured about to stop with a Chester to Wolverhampton service. Neither of the loops here were much used at this time and I was never fortunate enough to take pictures with the appropriate signals in the "off" position. Peter Tandy.
This bridge just to the south of Bromsgrove station was a popular spot for photography until the overhead wires went up to allow the lines to Bromsgrove station and Redditch to be electrified. The train is Tyseley's class 117 unit T309 (51372 + 59490 + 51414) approaching the station on 7 July 1988 with a Worcester to Birmingham New Street service. Peter Tandy.

A Tyseley allocated Class 117 Suburban 3-Car DMU formed of cars 51372, 59490 & 51414 (T309) was stabled in Croft Street Sidings at Preston on August 28th 1988. Never a common sight in the Preston area, several of these West Midlands sets were on temporary loan to Newton Heath during this period when problems with the Class 142 fleet was causing stock shortages. Martyn Hilbert.

The class 101 unit (T078, 51249 + 53146) fitted nicely between various posts at the end of Stratford-upon-Avon's platform 2 on 1 July 1991. It was working with T310 (presumably 51373 + 59486 + 51415). The scene has changed a lot since this photograph was taken in that the gasholders have been demolished, the semaphore signals have been replaced with electric lights (twice) and a white paling fence has been erected to deter trespassers from getting onto the line. Peter Tandy.
