Three Cravens twins depart from Sutton-on-Hull station heading to Hornsea, seen from another Cravens DMU. Undated, possibly late 1950s. Stuart Mackay Collection.
A Cravens twin in the snow at Hatfield, thought to be taken in 1961. Stuart Mackay Collection.
The RCTS Rhymney No.2 railtour at Penrhiwfelin Hengoed on 14 October 1972. The TSRB is thought to be W59421, between power cars W51062 and W51090. Stuart Mackay Collection.
The 06:45 Ayr - Glasgow service approaches Byrehill Junction on 26 August 1978 formed of two Swindon Class 126 DMUs. Stuart Mackay Collection.
A Class 124/123 Swindon DMU (E51956 closest) in the centre road at Leeds on 15 February 1983. On the right is Class 108 DMSL E50636. Stuart Mackay Collection.
Seen in Sonning Cutting at Woodley in June 1988 is a 121 DMBS (55021) / 101 DMBS / 121 DTS formation. Stuart Mackay Collection.
A Met-Camm twin and a Cravens / Met-Camm twin. Location unknown, circa mid-1960s. Stuart Mackay Collection.
A DMU formation departs from Glasgow Central circa mid-1970s. Largs (or some of Largs as the blind seems to be ripped) is the destination shown, but it could be an ECS as there are no signs of passengers. Or, as there are at least seven cars, maybe the passengers got on at the rear. Leading are two-thirds of Class 116 set 152 - SC50821 closest, followed by a Class 122, a three-car Class 107, then another cab front can be seen of an unknown type.

A Class 105/101 hybrid twin in Durham station sometime in 1981. Stuart Mackay Collection.
A Class 101 power twin, and a Class 108/101 twin, heading south away from Kirkby Stephen at Birkett Common, presumably on a Carlisle - Leeds service, on 20 May 1989. Stuart Mackay Collection.
On 2 May 1994 T351 (presumably 53921 at the front) leads L713 about to pass under Edstone Aqueduct, the longest cast-iron structure of its type in England. This location is just to the north of Bearley. Peter Tandy.
Looking towards Bearley Junction from Henley-in-Arden on 2 May 1994 we see a six car set led by T588 (class 116 DMS 53124 leading with Class 119 51079 + 51107) and a 3 car class 116 trailing. Peter Tandy.
Monday 2 May 1994 was a sunny Bank Holiday and trains between Birmingham and Stratford-upon-Avon included some first generation DMUs rather than class 150s to increase capacity. In the afternoon I went to Henley in Arden where, if on time, south and northbound services should cross. I was exceptionally lucky as L713 entered the station as another set (see below) was on its way to Birmingham. L713 was a mixed set which appeared to be a pair of power triples, having had a single power car added to a pair of power cars presumably to work to Sprinter timings, led by Network South East liveried L713. On the immediate right is Class 119 DMBC 51079. Peter Tandy.
A two-car suburban set, with a Class 115 DMBS, near Stenson Junction on 4 September 1993 on what I took to be a Nottingham to Birmingham New Street service. The picture was taken from a footpath near the freight-only Sheet Stores line while I was looking for a different viewpoint from the usual spot on the farm bridge near the junction. Peter Tandy.
The exhausts from three 2 car class 115 units (the leading pair are 51895 + 54274) add to the murkiness at Quainton Road on 12 November 1988 as it leaves the station with one of the annual Aylesbury to Milton Keynes "Shopper Specials" which ran along the freight line via Claydon LN & E Junction to Bletchley. Peter Tandy.
Strong backlighting and a misty morning don't make for great photographic conditions. This is class 116/101 hybrid set T036 formed of 53054 + 53245 approaching the station at Wellington in Shropshire on 7 September 1991 with a Wolverhampton to Chester train. The bracket signal was notable for having quite short arms for the 3 aspects and had been converted from lower to upper quadrant at some point. The arm on the right had side gave access to a bay in the down platform area. Peter Tandy.
I spent a couple of hours at Bentley Heath Crossing on 18 September 1993 and along with quite a selection of freight photographed Regional Railways 117211 (51376 + 51334) working on a Birmingham Snow Hill to Dorridge diagram. It is seen here approaching the footbridge over the road crossing itself before leaving the up main line to run into platform 3 at Dorridge. Peter Tandy.
Trains terminating at Dorridge form connections to local stations further down the line and therefore leave after an express from London Marylebone have passed. This is 117211 (51376 + 51334) just after joining the down main line at Bentley Heath on its journey to Birmingham Snow Hill on 18 September 1993. Peter Tandy.
Class 150s worked most of the local services between Birmingham and Leamington Spa in 1993 so it was a bit of a surprise to see a 5 car DMMU coming around the bend at Finwood (the location sometimes called Rowington or Lowsonford although both villages are a few miles away) on the afternoon of Saturday 25 September 1993. The leading unit has a 116 at the front and the class 117 trailing is 117210 (51415 + 51373). This was a popular spot at the time as there were 3 southbound intermodals in quick succession including a Leeds to Southampton usually powered by a pair of class 37s along with the chance of a northbound MGR from Didcot Power Station. Peter Tandy.
This is the 10.12 from Stratford-upon-Avon to Leamington Spa at Hatton on 22 January 1994 formed of 2 car 117213 (51382 + 51339). First generation DMUs were very thin on the ground by this time around here so well worth recording. Peter Tandy.
