A Swindon Works image (negative 5CR 189) showing the interior of brand new Cross-Country Driving Motor Second Sc51794. I have this dated as 22 March 1960 however the vehicle was new to Kittybrewster in 20 February 1960. This one of the second batch, and differences from the first batch (see image 5CR 82) was different side panel/ceiling formica, moquette and curtain material. The luggage rack lamps lacked the silver rings, and there was a heater thermostat on the partition. Also the nearest rows of seats lacked the headrest section, probably to increase visibility out the cab windows for the passengers in that saloon. British Railways.

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.
