Class 120 Swindon Cross-Country DMU set C558 (51579 + 59264 + 51588) at Horton Road Crossing, Gloucester, most probably with a Swindon line service. Circa early 1980s. Curly42.
A Class 120/101 hybrid set with a refurbished Met-Camm departs Fairlie High station en route to Largs circa 1981. It's an ex-Inverness DMS, of which two were at Ayr at the time. It is probably 51794 rather than '89, as it was noted working with 59680 + 51470 in February 1981. Andrew McConnell.
Swindon Cross-Country set C601 seen in Shrewsbury station circa 1981. S Saunders.
Derby Midland Station 1981 It may be a bit fuzzy but it is one of the few photos I took of Derby station. The original mid-Victorian Midland Railway station building - the chimneys can be seen above the awnings - was still in use but of course I failed to get a photo of that. Sadly it was demolished in the mid-1980s and replaced by the nondescript modern building. In the distance the lattice footbridge to Derby Loco Shed & Works is just visible. It was an early start from Leicester & my mate gave me a lift to the station where at 07.40 it was only just getting light. I later took the dmu seen in the platform to Sheffield and then on to Huddersfield via the remains of the Woodhead Route. Pete LG99.

Two Class 120 Swindon Cross-Country DMU sets form a down passenger service seen at Swansea Loop West on 28 March 1981. Closest is DMSL W51788 which until the previous year had been a Scottish vehicle. The other set is C588 with 51579 at the far end. Robert Thomas.
Two Class 120 DMU sets (C558 and C615) pass around Swansea Loop West with a down passenger on 28 March 1981. W51579 is closest, W51788 is at the far end. Robert Thomas.
A rather grubby Class 120 'Swindon Cross Country' set no. C615 (51781+59682+51788) is seen at Carmarthen during its reversal with train 2C64 the 13.15 Swansea to Milford Haven on 11/04/81. These 'Swindon' sets were synonymous with West Wales in the late 1970's early 80's with a mix of 2 and 3 car units covering the majority of no loco hauled services. Adrian Nicholls.

M50718 + 59300 + 50654 with a Cleethorpes - Birmingham NS service at Grimsby Town on April 18, 1981. John Carter.
This is obviously a Branch Line Society railtour! Swindon Cross-Country car 51787 really could not have travelled further down the branch to Girvan Goods on the second day of the "Ayrshire Wanderer" tour on 30 August 1981. A few weeks later this car would be transferred to England (at Derby Etches Park). Jeremy Chapter.
2 x 2-car class 120 DMU's with set C602 (presumably 50649 + 50698) leading set C605 call at Llandrindod Wells on the Central Wales line with the 10.46 Shrewsbury to Swansea in May 1981. Adrian Nicholls.
