May 1977
Set: TS402
With one reburbished-liveried vehicle and two still in plain blue, Met-Camm set TS402 passes through the construction site of University station in Birmingham with a Worcester Shrub Hill service during May 1977. Michael Mensing.
1st June 1978
Birmingham University station, 1st June 1978. A Class 116 diesel multiple unit, no doubt based at Tyseley, on a pre-electrification Cross City service disappears towards Redditch (although this service terminated at Longbridge according to the banner display) at the new Birmingham University station in Edgebaston. Well, it was new in 1978! Pete LG99.

A Class 116 in refurbished livery on a Four Oaks working seen near University station in Birmingham during 1980. It appears to be set TS502, and so presumably 50912 + 59002 + 50861. Ian Docwra.
Unknown Date
A cross-city line DMU passes a narrow boat (our hired craft) near University, Birmingham. The train is bound for Longbridge, then the home of British Leyland. Ian Docwra.

7th February 1987
Birmingham University station is situated on the stretch of line between New Street and Kings Norton. Running alongside the canal it used to offer some interesting locations but whether this is case since the advent of overhead electrification I could not say. On Saturday 7 February 1987 a Longbridge to Four Oaks service was composed of a class 116 power-twin, a single unit bubble car, and a normally-formed 3 car class 116 set bringing up the rear. This type of mish-mash setup from Tyseley Depot was far from unusual and added to interest of the unit scene around Birmingham. Peter Tandy.
