This Class 165 three-car dmu unit, one of a class originally known as Network Turbos, was photographed late at night with a long exposure time in 2017, had recently completed a scheduled commuter train service from London Marylebone and would probably have been stabled at the station for the night.

Chiltern Railways Trains Clubman Class 168215 (effectively a Class 170) diesel multiple unit, built by Adtranz/Bombardier at Derby, waits at Banbury station - offering an ideal night photo opportunity - in August 2012.


Resembling the Class 165 dmu unit, the Class 168 UK passenger trains were manufactured in several batches from 1987 to a total build of 19 trainsets.  Further builds, were classed as 168/1 and 168/2.  
Due to the fact that the class was built at the same time as the Class 170 Turbostar they were regarded as part of the Turbostar family of trains.

Chiltern Railways ordered the first batch of Clubman carriages which were delivered in 3-car sets.  Later these sets were lengthened to 4-cars.

When Chiltern Railways obtained nine trainsets from First TransPennine Express, the trains were converted to operate with the Class 168 fleet and redesignated as Class 168/3.
