The vehicle is mentioned in the following images:

DMU

Date: 10th May 1969

The negative sleeve recorded this as 56310 + 51110 on the 2.35pm Waverley to North Berwick service departing Prestopans on 10 May 1969. However 56310 had been transferred from Scotland to South Gosforth a couple of years earlier so that part is likely wrong. 51110 was a Leith Central vehicle. Stuart Mackay Collection.

One of Tyseley depots DMU lash-ups TS416, thought to be class 105 51490, class 104 59193 and class 100 51110, has just passed Bentley Heath Crossing on a Dorridge - Birmingham Moor Street train. 4 April 1980. Chris Morrison.
