1st September 1985

A pair of WMPTE class 116 dmus (TS624 and presumably 51130 closest with 59615 + 51143) forming one of the Coalville Open day shuttles, having traveled on this along the freight only line from Leicester to Coalville, the train is now loading up again before continuing to Burton-on-Trent. 1st September 1985. Andrew J Crowther.

13th October 1985

51130 / TS624 (presumably with 59615 + 51143) at Buxton on the 13th October 1985. This was a BR organised day excursion from Derby, formed of a Class 116 and Class 120. Chris Lings.

22nd March 1986

Newly painted class 116 set TS624 (presumably 51143 + 59615 + 51130) approaching Small Heath with a Birmingham Moor Street to Stratford-upon-Avon train on 22 March 1986. I never felt entirely comfortable in this location if no other photographers were present as there was a bit of a dodgy pub immediately to the left of the road bridge but on this occasion there wasn't an issue because 2 steam-hauled workings were working away from Birmingham... Peter Tandy.

April 1987

Tyseley set T624, 51130 closest presumably with 59615 + 51143, arrives at Hereford with a service from Birmingham in April 1987. Paul James.
