            A three car Class 120 “Swindon Cross Country” DMU M50663/59297/50719 arrives at Newark Castle with a Lincoln – Derby service, 13th May 1978.

Unit History
This Class 120 set was built at Swindon during 1958 as part of an order for forty nine sets for Western Region services. In 1969, twenty two sets were transferred from the Western Region to Derby, to replace the less successful Derby based three car Class 105 Cravens units. I am old enough to remember their arrival in the East Midlands and the improvement they brought over the Cravens units. Until the introduction of the class 150 “Sprinter” DMU’s in 1985 these class 120 units formed the backbone of the East Midlands local train fleet. By March 1986 the remaining class 120 vehicles had been transferred away from Derby and by October 1989 the last class 120 vehicles had been withdrawn. W50663 entered service in March 1958, transferred to Derby in May 1969, withdrawn in December 1984 and broken up in April 1985. W59297 entered service in January 1959, transferred to Derby in May 1969, withdrawn in August 1987 and broken up in March 1989, W50719 entered service in April 1958, transferred to Derby in May 1969, withdrawn in October 1985 and broken up in June 1986.
