Back in the "anything goes" days it wasn't a surprise to see this lash-up on an Edinburgh to Kirkcaldy stopping service at Aberdour in August 1987.

From Swindon to Burntisland. Swindon built DMUs were a rarity in Fife, save for the occasional 1960s fill-in turn by an Edinburgh-Glasgow Inter City class 126 set. But in the late 80s several Cross Country class 120s were drafted north having been displaced by Sprinters elsewhere, and this led to their appearance during the "anything goes" period before new sets were introduced. Here set 533 (53682 closest) approaches Burntisland station on an Edinburgh to Kirkcaldy stopping service in August 1987. Murray Liston.
