1966
In the mid 1960s, a Tyseley based Gloucester RC&W 'Cross-Country' set was scheduled to work what was known in the Chester/Wirral area as "the Leamington" - a Leamington Spa - Birkenhead service which - prior to be taken over by one of these sets - had usually been hauled by a "Hall" class 4-6-0 as far as Chester. One of these sets is seen here passing Port Sunlight in 1966. The style of the yellow panel shows that the last repaint had taken place at Swindon. David Faircloth.

Set: 501
A two-car GRC&W Cross-Country DMU labelled set 501 at Bedwyn. Undated, but the plain blue livery with small yellow panel dates it as the late 1960s. The vehicles are probably 51089 + 51061. Graham Clark.
circa 1967
Set: 501
Cross-Country GRC&W set 501 at Bedwyn in the late 1960s, the vehicles are probably 51089 + 51061. The marker light adjacent to the tail lamp is missing it's lens, perhaps been caught by a tail lamp being put on / off? Graham Clark.
circa 1967
Set: 501
A two-car GRC&W Cross-Country set at Bedwyn circa 1967. At the time Reading had two two-car sets allocated, 500 and 501, formed from 51053/61 and 51081/89, so this could be 51089 + 51061 if the higher set number contained the higher numbered vehicles. The two sets were transferred to the unlikely location of Inverness in May 1968. Graham Clark.
Unknown Date
Maybe a 119? A 3-car and a 2-car seen at Saltash on the line from Bere Alston, date unknown. Steve Davies Collection.
