Having spent much of my earlier years travelling on these units from Manchester Victoria to Hull, it was a change to see one at Piccadilly.

A Class 124 Trans-Penning unit seen at Selby on 28/07/1975. Apparently still in original 6-car formation, including Buffet car with red stripe at cantrail level, it is entering the station as what would have most likely be a Hull - Manchester / Liverpool TransPennine service (the headcode has an M in the second position, confirming a Midland region destination). Leading car is E51962, followed by 51982. Graeme Phillips Collection.

20th March 1976
A diesel multiple unit heads west out of Scarborough station heading for York on 20th March 1976. It wasn't unusual for a Met-Camm or BRC&W vehicle to replace a vehicle in a Trans-Pennine set; this seems to be a much more unusual occurrence of a Trans-Pennine vehicle substituting for a Met-Camm vehicle. Pete LG99.
20th March 1976
A 5-car diesel multiple unit waits in Scarborough station with a train for York under the original 1845 G.T. Andrews trainshed on 20th March 1976. The leading vehicle is a BR Swindon Class 124 Transpennine unit, the second is a Met-Camm. The station was expanded from the original 2 platforms to 9, the clock tower dating from 1883. Today platforms 6-9 on the right here have been taken out. I was on a geology field trip to look at the analogues to the North Sea oil source rocks & reservoirs in the Jurassic cliffs from Filey to Whitby. This was the first day & we had travelled up from Kings Cross to York & after checking into the hotel - the totally misnamed Grand Hotel - time for a stroll down to the station to take a few evening shots. Pete LG99.

A Swindon-built Class 124 "Trans-Pennine" diesel multiple unit stands at Leeds ("City" as it still was then) station on Saturday 3rd April 1976. These distinctive units with their wrap-around windows were relatively luxurious, originally including a buffet car in their formation, and they worked inter-city services for many years across northern England between the Mersey and the Humber.
