Class 117. Western region set L422 based at Reading with the Driving Motor Second leading on the down main approaching Southall on a Saturday morning in June 1972. According to the Ian Allan headcode booklet of 1968, 2A52 indicates an ordinary class 2 passenger train that starts and stops somewhere between Paddington & West Drayton; however the destination screen reads Oxford. Set L422 formation is listed as 51402 DMS, 59512 TCL & 51360 MDBS. Photo by Michael Taylor, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. (mtaylor6@home.com) Website www.members.home.net/mtaylor6

Class 117. Western region set L461 with the Driving Motor Brake Second leading on the down main approaching Southall on a Saturday morning in June 1972.
