Unknown Date
Vehicle: 51063 Set: B577
Class 119 set B577 (presumably 51063 + 59422 + 51091) heads out of Worcester Foregate Street in the late 1960s / early 1970s. Whilst most DMUs went from green livery to blue livery from the late 1960s, Cross-Country (Classes 119 and 120) and Inter-City (Classes 123 and 126) types (including Trans-Pennine Class 124) generally went straight into blue & grey livery, thus they carried this livery with many original fitting such as headcodes (which were normally removed later). Going against the trend, some Scottish region Class 120 and 126 units carried blue livery, whilst some Western region Class 101 units that were deployed on Cross-Country services went straight from green livery to blue & grey, long before the livery became standard for the class.

29th September 1989
Vehicle: 55034 Set: T134
The advantage of bidirectional working at Worcester Foregate Street on the 29th September 1989 enabled this photo to be taken! On the right 31448 waits to leave with the 09.43 to Birmingham New Street from Hereford (09.01) and is running about 5 minutes late. Overtaking it is T134 (55034) which is on the 09.48 WFS to Barnt Green via Worcester Shrub Hill, where it will reverse and follow 31448. Loco haulage had ended on the Hereford services but due to a shortage of DMUs and I believe class 150s, class 31s were used for most of September 1989. Dave Gommersall.
10th August 1989
Vehicle: 55034 Set: T134
The main duty of the Worcester DMU 'bubble' cars was to work between Worcester and Barnt Green where they connected with trains from Redditch, since services to BNS were routed via Kidderminster in 1989. On the 10th August 1989 55034 (T134) leaves Worcester Foregate Street with the 11.31 to Barnt Green. The diesel emissions were through the exhaust system on the front of one end of the DMU making that end rather ugly. In the distance are the semaphores guarding the flyover over the River Severn on the line to Malvern. Dave Gommersall.

In 1989 Worcester Foregate Street made an effort to brighten up the station with at least 2 bedding plant containers!! Dave Gommersall.
16th April 1992
Vehicle: 53891 Set: T326
T326 (53891 closest) has just arrived at Worcester Foregate Street at 10.05 on the 16th April 1992 with 2V09, the 09.42 Barnt Green to Worcester Foregate Street. It was unusual for the Barnt Green to Foregate Street shuttle to have a 3 car unit on it, a single 'bubble' car was the usual allocation! Dave Gommersall.
