GWR liveried Class 117 set B430 (51410 + 59520 + 51368) waits to depart from Swindon station in January 1988. It has 'Swindon Junction' on its destination blind. This was the station's original name, which was shortened when Swindon Town closed in 1961 (thanks to 'Mad Mac' for that info). Mike Cooper.

I arrived at Stratford-upon-Avon on Saturday 19 July 1985 to catch the 08.12 train to Leamington Spa to find an unusual replacement for the usual single unit or pair of single units in the form of class 117 set B431 comprising 51411, 59521 and 51369. I assumed that this had been pinched by Tyseley to cover a shortage of their own sets after it had arrived at Birmingham New Street during the previous day. I sat in the first class compartment to take full advantage of the thicker padding and better backrests of the seats... Peter Tandy.
Class 117 set B431 (51369 + 59521 + 51411) worked trains between Leamington Spa at Stratford-upon-Avon on 19 July 1985. The procedure at the time was for trains arriving into platform 3 at Stratford-upon-Avon from the north to leave the station on the up line and then use the crossover just around the corner to reverse and come back either into platform 2 for Birmingham services or to run through the station before reversing again to gain bay platform 1 for Stratford. This picture shows B431 having completed the first reversal as it ran past the flower beds on platform 2. Peter Tandy.

A Class 117 DMU at Worcester Shrub Hill on 25 May 1985. It seems to be set B432, and so presumably formed 51412 + 59522 + 51370. Jonathan Hazan.
There were diversions of Inter-City expresses through Worcester Shrub Hill on 29 March 1986 and amongst all the locomotive-hauled traffic were the usual DMUs. This picture shows class 117 set B432 formed of 51370 + 59522 + 51412 arriving at the station with a Birmingham New Street to Hereford service. Note that the calling-on arm of the signal part way down the post is in the "off" position rather than the main arm to allow access to the platform prior to a reversal and journey through Foregate Street towards Hereford.
