DECstation 220 Impasse Reached

Hello Everyone, As I have mentioned before I have made some progress on a DECstation 220, but I have reached an impasse. I get some signals on the data bus which I am not sure about. They look odd, but they could be normal, I just don't know. I took a picture of the scope trace, which is here:
