Here the Class 101 DMU (50144 + 59303 + 50254) sits at the platform awaiting the return journey. The station is now part of the Caledonian Railway Preservation Society. Alistair Ness.
The BLS 'Clydeside Wanderer' railtour on 25 August 1979 outside Greenock (Union Street) Tunnel. The train did not enter the tunnel, the Clyde Port Authority ownership boundary was immediately at the Greenock end of the tunnel and BR wasn’t willing to stop and change ends to reverse the train inside the tunnel. Alistair Ness.

The Park Royal DMU on the 11.20 from Aberystwyth has the signal cleared and will leave Towyn once the driver has finished his conversation... Taken sometime in 1972. On the other platform, the ticket office has received a new Univers sign, but those indicating the Waiting Room and the Ladies Waiting Room are still in traditional form. Tom Burnham.

The 10.20 from Birmingham New Street to Aberystwyth arrives at Welshpool station on June 10 1972, formed of Tyseley diesel units TY410 (front, presumably 50331 leading) and TY403. I'm not sure why a member of the party is scrutinising the ballast behind the equipment cabinet, but if he did it now he would probably trigger a full-scale security alert... Tom Burnham.

Taken from a footbridge - Factory Road on the left, Albert Road on the right. Tate & Lyle sugar refinery in the background. Tom Burnham.
DMU at Stratford (Low Level) on November 27, 1970. The autumn early afternoon sun lights up the clouds of exhaust from the two power cars as a 3-car diesel set leaves the Low Level platforms at Stratford for North Woolwich. Closest is Class 111 DMCL E51551, it would be transferred from Stratford to Neville Hill very soon after. It is working with two Class 104 vehicles, a TBSL and DMCL. Tom Burnham.

Anthony Williams.
Further to some recent photos of the remodelling of the London end of Tonbridge on other groups, here is an earlier view of the preparatory work on the curve around towards Hildenborough taken on Sunday 26-7-92. The train is noteworthy too being DMU Set L490 which consisted of a pair of Class 108 cars (DMC 51572 and DMBS 53599) strengthened to 3-cars by the addiction of an unknown centre car. Class 108 stock was pretty unusual at Tonbridge. The photo was taken at about 17.10hrs and the unit had just shunted out of the Up Redhill Branch Siding and was now heading for Hither Green for refuelling as the normal access to Chart Leacon (Ashford) was blocked by an engineering possession. CEP and EPB units are berthed in the Down Main Sidings and an EDL visible in the West Yard. John Atkinson.
The 1.25pm Corstorphine - North Berwick service is seen during the Edinburgh Waverley stop on 22 May 1962. The GRC&W twin set has DMBS Sc51126 closest. Taken from the footbridge that forms the station exit to Leith Walk. Michael Mensing.
