16th May 1986
A three-car Class 101 Metro-Cam DMU with Driving Motor Second Lavatory (ex Composite), 53333 leading, was stood on the Up Fast at Leyland station with an early morning Blackpool North to Manchester Victoria service on May 16th 1986. Running without a destination blind in place, this was another hastily acquired set to cover a shortage of units following the troubles of the new Class 142 Pacer fleet the introduction of which had seen the demise of much of the areas first generation fleet of DMU sets in 1985/86. When the Pacer fleet started to be sidelined/stored due to numerous technical issues and poor-design faults, still serviceable DMU sets appeared at Newton Heath that were once unfamiliar on local services across the North West. This was a short term fix until the new Class 150/2 Sprinters appeared in sufficient quantities. Martyn Hilbert.

A Metro-Cammell Class 101 three-car set, with Driving Motor Brake Second M53314 at the rear, was stood at Leyland with a Manchester Victoria to Blackpool North service on May 16th 1986. The unfamiliar sight of a Class 101 was due to the sidelining of almost new Class 142 Pacers, following reliability issues, causing the transfer of still extant and serviceable first generation DMU's to Newton Heath depot, garnered in a hurry from across the BR network. Martyn Hilbert.

16th May 1986
With DMBS M53308 bringing up the rear of a 3-Car Class 101 DMU set (the other vehicles are presumably 59125 + 53331), the tidy-looking unit was stood on the Down Slow at Leyland station whilst forming a Manchester Victoria to Blackpool North service on May 16th 1986. The 101 was one of several sets transferred in haste to Newton Heath Depot in the interim period following the introduction of unreliable new Class 142's many of which had been stored pending modifications, and with the demise of the Class 104 and Class 120 fleet, operational sets of various classes still extant from across the BR network stood-in until sufficient quantities of the BREL Class 150/2 Sprinter fleet were delivered from BREL York in 1987/88. Martyn Hilbert.

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.
