31st May 1989
Set: T133
This is one of my favourite shots of 55033 after it was repainted into Midline livery. It was taken on 31 May 1989 while working the two-hourly shuttles between Leamington Spa and Stratford-upon-Avon and is seen with driver Wilson in charge passing Stratford East signal box where the line crosses the Stratford Canal. Peter Tandy.
3rd June 1989
Set: T134
On 3 June 1989 55034 is photographed on the Birmingham to Worcester service from a road bridge south of Bromsgrove station near Stoke Prior. This is a decent location with good views available in both directions and with a shot still available of a train in the down goods loop in 2021 thanks to some much needed clearance of some vegetatiom from the lineside. Peter Tandy.

15th July 1989
Set: T133
One of Tyseley depot's odder combinations photographed at Northfield in Birmingham on 15 July 1989. Four-car sets were often used on the Cross City services between Four Oaks and Redditch and it seems that the depot was really struggling to find enough sets to go around as this formation was made up of class 121 single unit 55033 (in Midline livery), a 2 car class 108 and and class 121 single car 55032. In retrospect I should have stayed on for the return but moved to the other side of Birmingham to photograph some freight on the Leamington Spa line. Peter Tandy.
27th July 1989
Set: T134
This was the scene just to the south of Bromsgrove station on 27 July 1989 taken from the bridge known to most local photographers as "Garringtons". At the time the station had a single platorm on the up side meaning that the few trains that called there had to cross over to collect passengers. A single unit, on this occasion 55034, was the usual accomodation for the modest number of passengers on the Birmingham to Worcester services that called here: a situation that had been the case for a number of years. Prominent in the picture are the Lickey Bankers, 37071 + 37032, waiting either for a freight that needed a shove up the 1/37 of the incline or an ailing locomotive or unit needing assistance. The view here in 2021 has changed almost beyond belief with electrification of the line, a new 4 platform station, the removal of the oil terminal and the inevitable construction of multiple housing estates. Peter Tandy.

A bubble in a very different environment with L130, class 121 single car 55030, approaching Acton with a London Paddington to Greenford train in the late afternoon of 19 September 1989. The building work would soon obscure the view of the bridge over the North London Line and much of the capital's infrastructure. Peter Tandy.
