They are awaiting the arrival of the 4.25pm ex-Scarborough before they depart as a combined train. Michael Mensing.

Class 101 DMUs at Whitby Town in 1964. A busy scene, with three Class 101 units, plus loco-hauled stock is also visible behind the middle unit. At this time, Whitby was still linked to Scarborough, albeit requiring reversals at either end of the route to leave / access the stations, but this coastal route closed the following year, 1965. All three Met-Camms have different width of yellow panels. The set on the right is formed DMS/TBS/DMS. Graeme Phillips Collection.

A station full of Met-Camms. Whitby Town contains at least four sets. The driver-trailer set on the right is in the darker green, the revised lining shows that the DMBS has been repainted at Doncaster. It's partner seems to have thicker than normal lining. No date, but the yellow panels everywhere suggest the mid to late-1960s. David Faircloth.

Sunday 27/06/1971 at Whitby, and the main station platforms are filled with a total of eight DMU vehicles of classes 101 and 108. The Class 101 DTC on the left is from the small batch of twelve sets the that had the mounting plate for the top marker light (but no top light). The leading Class 108 vehicle on the right is E50623, which was allocated to 52J / South Gosforth, Newcastle, at the time. It carries Tyne Rail graphics on the cab front and also the body side, and these incorporated unofficial vehicle names, which, in the case of E50623, was 'Cushie Butterfield'.

A 2-car Class 101 DMU, with DMC(L) E50261 (of Darlington depot) nearest the camera, is seen at Whitby in June 1975. Such power-twin formations were less common in the 1970s, so this pair has probably had its centre car(s) removed for maintenance. Graeme Phillips Collection.
