7th May 1987
Two car Class 108 dmu, 54493 + 51942, crosses from down main to down slow at Kettering Junction. The service had originated at Bletchley and would terminate in another mile or so at Kettering. The destination blind shows "St. Albans Abbey". Taken on May 7, 1987. Mike Dean.
29th June 1987
Set: T201
On 29 June 1987 Class 108 51570 leads 59367 (Class 116) + 59206 (Class 104) + 53628 (Class 108) on a Kettering - Bedford service at Kettering South. Despite the Tyseley set number, this was a Bletchley unit. Mike Dean.
16th July 1987
A 2-car Class 108 DMU (with coaches 54493/51942) in Platform 1 at Kettering on 16 July 1987. I have this down as the 13.35 Kettering-Corby, but this platform faces south. Did the 13.35 depart south from Kettering with passengers, and then reverse to travel north? Or was the unit about to shunt over to Platform 3 to pick up passengers for its departure? Lewis Bevan.
5th August 1987
Class 47 no. 47628 approaches Kettering station with a down ballast train and passes M55011 between duties on the Corby shuttle service at 13.20 hrs on 5 August 1987. Lewis Bevan.
18th August 1987
A Class 108 2-car dmu, comprising vehicles 51916 + 51571 at Kettering to form a service for Corby (despite what s showing in the destination panel!) on 18 August 1987. As this was a south-facing bay at Kettering I assume the unit will shunt to one of the main line platforms before heading to Corby. Lewis Bevan.
31st October 1987
The three-car 108 set led by 51572 will prove more than adequate for the day's last service to Corby as it waits at Kettering on platform 3 (as it then was) while an up Inter City speeds through platform 4. October 31, 1987. Mike Dean.
25th November 1987
Class 122 55011 ticks over in the bay platform at Kettering between duties on the Corby service, November 25, 1987. Not much left of this scene, though Kettering Station box, now at Swanwick Junction, is a notable survivor. Mike Dean.
7th January 1988
Set: T227
Mainly associated with Lincolnshire, some of the Derby built heavyweight units were subsequently moved away. Inevitably in its quest for non-standardisation, Tyseley received some. Here, trailer 54027 leads a Corby service into Kettering on 7/1/88. The car park to the right was the site of the steam shed. Mike Dean.
13th May 1988

Set: 108
A Network South East Three Counties class 108, 54194 leading, 51916 pushing, waits at Kettering with a Bedford service. I don't know whether any passengers were confused by the destination displayed: in fact I don't know if there were any passengers. Taken on January 25, 1989. Mike Dean.
13th February 1989
A hybrid dmu, made up from cars from Classes 108 and 115, waits at Kettering on 13 February 1989 to leave on the shuttle service to Corby. Closest is Class 108 DMBS 53599. Lewis Bevan.
