A Class 120 hybrid set drifts through the West Lancashire countryside at Cocker Bar between Midge Hall and Ulnes Walton with the 17.55 Preston to Ormskirk service on June 25th 1985. The former Derby Etches Park set EP503 was formed of two Class 120 Swindon built driving cars and a Class 101 centre trailer car. This particular out and back service on the Ormskirk line was regularly diagrammed for a Class 120 during this period. The sets were normally used on Manchester to Blackpool North services. Martyn Hilbert.
A hybrid Swindon Cross-Country 3-Car DMU set (Formerly Derby Etches Park Depot set EP503) with W51573 leading, departs from Kirkham with Manchester Victoria to Blackpool South tea-time through service on August 2nd 1985. Sandwiched between the two Class 120 driving cars was a Metro-Cammell Class 101 trailer car. This viewpoint including the semaphore signal has now gone, a six-foot palisade fence now segregates the running lines from the cobbled road to the former goods yard. Martyn Hilbert.
