Class 114 Derby 2-car DMUs


Diagrams

DMBS: BR 516 & DTC: BR 641

BR Diagram 516 BR Diagram 641

These show the vehicles in their re-engined form. Diagram BR 641 was also used for 56000 as the body and interiors were identical, only differering in control systems.

There was also an earlier alternative version BR 516 showing both vehicles as a set. This still shows 50049 as lot no. 30209 (it became 30459)
