116 DMU

53891

Set Number: TS618

4th June 1985
This was for many years the commonest sight around Hatton; a class 116 unit shuttling between Leamington Spa and Birmingham. On 4 June 1985 TS618 (53891 and presumably 59598 + 53073) was climbing Hatton Bank with a local service and about to pass over the boarded foot crossing in the days before the new footbridge was built. On this occasion I was there to photograph steam locomotive 5051 working an exhibition train northwards - I was alone for the DMU shot but not for the Castle! Peter Tandy.

Details about preserved Class 116s can be found here.

Thanks to Mac Winfield, Ian Fleming and John Thomlinson for much of the information on this Class.
