Late afternoon in August 1987 and we see a 6 car DMU leaving platform 16 with a rush hour service to Fife. The BRCW DMUs were a rarity in Waverley until later reallocations, this set led by 53556 came north in 1986 for a couple of years before moving south again shortly before its withdrawal. It is presumably with 59228 + 53504 and there is a Class 101 on the rear. Murray Liston.
Symmetrical Strangers, almost. On the left we can see a surprise visitor to Westbury in November 1987, class 108 twin set B960 on a Weymouth to Bristol working. Formed of 53602 + 54197, these had been Yorkshire vehicles from new, but reallocated to Bristol just a few months earlier. The BRCW class 118 DMU on the right had been a Devon / Cornwall unit from new, but was reallocated to Cardiff in 1986 where it gained the Red Dragon branding. It was moved to Bristol a month before this photo was taken, the set number changing to B480 when it was seen at Westbury on a Bristol to Weymouth service, the numbers were W51327 + W59470 + W51312. Murray Liston.
Seen crossing over from the south to north approach tracks before entering Waverley one afternoon in August 1987 is this hybrid set using Swindon Cross Country power cars 53699 and 53658 sandwiching Metro Cammell centre car 59571, originally part of a Rolls Royce powered headcode set.

From Strathclyde to Fife. Taken from what is now a tram track, we see a Strathclyde red liveried 3 car DMU accelerating away from Haymarket with a Fife service one evening in August 1987. This comprises most of set 107436 (presumably 51997 + 59784), but the rear car has been substituted with a Metro Cammell vehicle. Murray Liston.
Taken in the winter of late 1987, we see a BRCW twin DMU stopping at Habrough on a service from Barton-upon-Humber to Cleethorpes. Sadly almost everything in this photo has now gone - station buildings, the GCR signalbox and gates, the DMU, and the footbridge I'm standing on to take the shot. Now left with two basic staggered platforms either side of an automated crossing. Murray Liston.

A Derby Works image (negative 59/242) showing the cab of one of their units, I'm guessing a Class 108. Taken circa spring 1959, the cab shows signs of use so it does not seem to be a new vehicle. Image courtesy of Diesel Unit Preservation Associates. British Railways.
