Class 126, 2-car DMU.

Taken from the trailing cab window of DMSL 51017, 51043+51017 approach Kinneil Halt, on the Bo'Ness & Kinneil Railway with the 18:10 Bo'Ness - Birkhill service during the diesel gala weekend on Sun 6th Sept 1998. This was the first year that this unit, following blue asbestos removal during 1992, had run in revenue earning service since then. However, only 51043 was able to carry passengers as 51017 is still an empty shell.
