55034 working with T038 (presumably 51808 + 53838) at Hereford, providing extra capacity on the 15:30 ex-Birmingham New St., 13/6/92. Gazza Prescott.
By 10 August 1992 single unit DMUs were not an everyday sight on the inadequate 2 hourly trains between Leamington Spa and Stratford-upon-Avon so it was worth a walk to the station when 55034 + 55032 were working the 17.05 to Leamington. This shot was taken just as the units were leaving the station and not long after resignalling had meant that a shunt from platform 1, historically the arrivals platform, to P2 was no longer necessary. The rust on the then little used tracks on P2 can been clearly seen. Peter Tandy.

Class 121 Pressed Steel single car DMU 55032, set T132, at Stourbridge Junction after arrival from Stourbridge Town on 15-3-89. This end (No.1, the non-van end) still carries the Welsh dragon despite being at Tyseley for almost three years. Note the broken wiper, and in the left cab window what seems like the traditional Tyseley black set number board has been turned over and 'Billy the Bubble Car' chalked on.

I was mildly surprised to see the "Midline Bubble" on the main line from Derby to Birmingham in May 1988 when it was photographed approaching Water Orton. Mechanical DMUs were not common on this line at the time with Sprinters having taken over most services. The destination board said that the unit was "Not in Service" but wasn't able to find out where it had been but assumed that it was going to Tyseley LMD. The relatively new M42 and part of the long-gone Hams Hall Power station can be seen in the background of this picture. Peter Tandy.
