15th February 1986
A blurred image but added as the Class 120 seems to be carrying a set number in the cab window, Tyseley style, albeit a chalked version (maybe 400?). One of the "bandit" Class 101s is alongside. Taken at Shrewsbury on 15 February 1986. Jonathan Hazan.
15th February 1986
An abundance of BRUTEs sit empty on the platforms at Shrewsbury as a two-car "bandit" Class 101 departs with a Class 108 on February 15, 1986. Jonathan Hazan.
24th May 1986
I think the DMU on this Swansea to Shrewsbury service had failed en-route, and it is seen here in Shrewsbury after arriving behind 25 265 on the 24th of May 1986. A comment by Adrian Nicolls (on flickr): "Looking at the clock which appears to show 14.30 and based on your caption comment. Its the 09.38 ex Swansea due Shrewsbury at 13.49 nothing ties in off the Cambrian line so looks very likely for the Central Wales line train. Canton depot had 7 two-car Met-Cam sets for west Wales workings back then numbered C801 - C807." The KDH Archive.

25th May 1987
Set: 809
Mechanical DMUs were becoming a bit uncommon in the Shrewsbury area by mid-1987 so I was pleased to take this picture of class 101, set 809 (presumably 53335 + 53319) leaving the town at Sutton Bridge Junction with a Crewe to Swansea service on 25th May of that year. In 2021 most of the semaphore signals survive but the bracket on the right has lost its low-speed arm controlling the entrance to the down loop as the track was lifted some time ago. Peter Tandy.
25th May 1987
On 25 May 1987 I was on the tower of Shrewsbury Castle ready for a shot of D200 working a Cardiff to Crewe service. Shortly before this came along BR blue single unit, 975042, forming part of the departmental fleet. As it arrived at the station looking a bit dwarfed by its surroundings, including the Severn Bridge Junction signal box, there was no other traffic in sight save the 08 shunter. In the 2021 the signal box benefitted from a £250,000 refurbishment which, in times gone by, would quite possibly have meant imminent closure! Peter Tandy.
20th June 1987
It was necessary for any train arriving at Shrewsbury from Wolverhampton to reverse for the return journey by leaving the station, crossing over before going back to one of the departure platforms. The class 108 shown above on 20 June 1987 was doing just that with the line to Chester disappearing into the distance. Peter Tandy.
20th June 1987
I had a few photographic sessions at Shrewsbury in the 1986 and 1987 including a couple on the tower of the castle which gave a great view across the station. On 20 June 1987 I was there as a class 108 was waiting to leave for Wolverhampton with quite a variety of stock visible including classes 08, 37, 47, another 108 a 150 Sprinter plus some Mk2 coaches, not to mention the largest surviving lever-frame signalbox in the country. Note also the back to back 116 DMBSs in the sidings. Peter Tandy.

circa late 1980s/early 1990s
A Class 108 DMU at Shrewsbury, date unknown. The chequer plate on the cab front suggests a Swansea set, so this was likely a Heart of Wales line service circa late 1980s/early 1990s. Phil Bevan.
