The BMU departing Aberdeen on the first day of public service (21st April 1958). The battery compartments are clearly visible under both vehicles. Note also the destination boards and brackets visible on the side of the leading coach above the windows; although a common feature on main-line coaches at the time this was an unusual feature on a multiple unit train.
