The RCTS "Rhymney No.2" railtour at Ogilvie Colliery on 14 October 1972. It was formed of two Class 119 DMU sets, B576 (51062 and presumably 59421 + 51090) and B580 (presumably 51094 + 59425 + 51066). Stuart Mackay Collection.
Class 119 set B577 (presumably 51063 + 59422 + 51091) heads out of Worcester Foregate Street in the late 1960s / early 1970s. Whilst most DMUs went from green livery to blue livery from the late 1960s, Cross-Country (Classes 119 and 120) and Inter-City (Classes 123 and 126) types (including Trans-Pennine Class 124) generally went straight into blue & grey livery, thus they carried this livery with many original fitting such as headcodes (which were normally removed later). Going against the trend, some Scottish region Class 120 and 126 units carried blue livery, whilst some Western region Class 101 units that were deployed on Cross-Country services went straight from green livery to blue & grey, long before the livery became standard for the class. Graeme Phillips Collection.
Class 119 DMU set B577, presumably 51063 + 59422 + 51091, at Bradford-on-Avon. The slide process date was January 1973 but the trees suggest this was summer/early autumn of the previous year. Stuart Mackay Collection.

Old Instamatic slides taken probably in summer 1973 at Westbury. This was during the period when the Portsmouth-Bristol trains had been strengthened to six coaches, resulting in WR dmus being drafted in to supplement the Hampshire demus. Closest is Class 119 set B577, presumably 51091 + 59422 + 51063. We were on a Southern Rover and had come out from Salisbury on the dmu to catch the Summer Saturdays only Cardiff-Weymouth which at that time was the only train booked via Chandlers Ford and formed of a Class 47 and Mk 1s.
