Unit History
On the 16th Oct. 1958 the British Transport Commission placed an order with The Pressed Steel Co., Linwood (Paisley) to build one hundred and twenty three vehicles of the standard Derby high-intensity design for Western Region London area suburban duties, these became Class 117. Interestingly although nominally a three car set only thirty nine trailer vehicles were built for forty two pairs of power cars and three sets entered service formed with Class 118 trailer vehicles of the same design as the Class 117 trailer vehicles but built by the Birmingham Carriage a Wagon Co. Although un-gangwayed when built, these were added later and by 1965 at least four sets had had them added to allow them to be formed into three or four car sets with the addition of a number of converted locomotive hauled stock. From about 1968 the rest had the corridor connections added. Delivery commenced in November 1959, with W51415 formed with W51373+W59480 (Class 118) entering traffic in October 1960, allocated to Reading, These three vehicles remained together until Western Region set 435 was transferred from London suburban duties to the West Country when Reading swapped 59480 for a Class 117 vehicle 59486 prior to its dispatch to Laira. The set transferred to Bristol in May 1982 and Tyseley in February 1988 where it became set T310 and then 117310 in 1992. The set transferred to Haymarket in April 1994 51415 was withdrawn in October 1996 and broken up by MC Metals, Glasgow in the same month.
