A three-car Swindon Cross-Country DMU with Driving Motor Second Lavatory (DMSL) M53666 leading, was passing Farington Junction with a Blackpool North to Manchester Victoria service on May 28th 1985. This open view is no longer possible due to unchecked lineside tree growth. Martyn Hilbert.

Between 1982 and 1984 I spent many happy hours with my friends chasing around the North of England after the remaining Class 40s. In between times, we did of course go bashing other quality classes, and the pairs of Class 20s that used to be employed on Summer Saturday workings from the Midlands to Skegness were always a riot! Seen here, on Platform 3 at Nottingham Midland station on Sunday 31st July 1983, is a vintage Swindon built Class 120 3-car DMU [Derby Etches Park based set EP510] - as we awaited our first Class 20 move of the day. DMSL 53667 is closest, the Met-Camm centre car and 120 DMBCL on the rear are presumably 59524 + 53713. Chris McKee.
For the 1985 Summer timetable an 06.37 Saturdays Only Stratford-upon-Avon to London Paddington train was introduced. Contrary to a rumour started by one of the station staff at Stratford this was not a class 50-hauled train to match the weekdays Paddington to Birmingham express which ran via Hatton but a DMU formed on most occasions of a pair of 3 coach Tyseley class 166 units. On 25 May 1985 I saw the ECS arriving from my then home's kitchen window and went to the station to capture this view of a pair of Derby-based class 120s led by EP510 (probably 50713 + 59257 + 50667) in platform 2 with 55012 heading a 3 coach class 116 in P3. It was common practice at the time for Tyseley to use whatever resources they had available but this was the only time that I saw anything but class 116 units on this train. Peter Tandy.
