The class 317 was built 41 years ago.
It is old but it is a good operated fast train.
Top speed: 100 mph
Date when was built: 1981.

[@bb-3653]

Theres something about the GA refurbishment that just makes them look so much more modern than they used to. I love it

[@journeysofjames1116]

Great. Love the sound of these units when they pass through.

[@thetransporthub]

Same here! Look out for the Class 319 video, that one is loud!

[@mauwahtsang349]

@@thetransporthub I think just like Hong Kong metro-Cammell kcr train motor sound

[@willcliff4532]

if the class 317's ran on third rail it would be good to have a picture of a 317 and a 455 together

[@bb-3653]

Indeed the 317 would be the 455s 100mph alter ego

[@Keyaans_Photography]

I dont feel safe near a third rail 😂

[@bb-3653]

@@Keyaans_Photography lol their fine...just don't enter the tracks lol

[@bb-3653]

@ToooFastYT yeah, guess it depends on area

[@lamborghinihexagons5502]

*There is a reason why the third rail is at the opposite side of the platform at stations*

[@daliverpoolfan69]

i love the 317 lights at 1:10 they just look really nice to me but im sure others will disagree

[@arnoldspottingvideos5269]

I love the GA 317s and LO 317/7s. Next will be First ScotRail class 318s.

[@swrtrainspotter]

You know it’s just ScotRail not First ScotRail

[@GNTel313]

Beautiful sounds. These trains are just awesome 👌

[@thetransporthub]

They are!

[@309JT]

Outstanding footage of this excellent class of EMU

[@thetransporthub]

Glad you enjoyed it

Greater Anglia is the current operator with Class 317 trains. These trains were withdrawn from London Overground in 2020, due to the COVID-19 outbreak. 317722 was used as a testbed for future upgrades and reliabilities in the future. Additionally The Class 317s will be replaced by 2022, with the introduction of the new Class 720 units. London Overground introduced Class 710 trains into service in December 2019, although full entry didn't start until March 2020.

[@user-do2rj4sf8j]

The class 317 for GA are going in December 2020. Are you sure that all the London Overground Class 317 completely gone.

[@user-do2rj4sf8j]

Mr Athavan i see, did they do a railtour for the class 317.

[@mrorangeaventra4683]

I wish the class 707s could be on greater anglia

Thanks!

[@bb-3653]

317/ 6 look the best imo.

[@PK345Transport]

Nice video 📹 👍

[@thetransporthub]

Thanks

[@SadLivingPerson]

Why did that overground skip one of the stations?!

[@thetransporthub]

on an ECS from Chingford

[@SadLivingPerson]

What's an ECS?@@thetransporthub

[@PXCRZ]

Amazing

[@thetransporthub]

Thanks

[@user-do2rj4sf8j]

Have you got any stansted express class 317's?

[@MrTransportAddict]

5:10 Refurbished Front?

[@thetrainsrock]

trial for new headlight clusters. only 653 got them

[@ab-yt6uq]

Are class 317s completely out of service for London Overground and GA?

[@lakshmanpathak]

a b Only LO, still with GA for the time being

[@levichalcraft8702]

They are still with Greater Anglia for now

[@uktransportgames]

Are these trains commuter or regional?

[@thetransporthub]

bit of both

[@seaside-dn8dp]

These trains are awesome. Basically an AC equivalent to the DC 455s

[@thetransporthub]

Yeah and the sound as good!

[@bb-3653]

Word, although the 317s have more horse power in their 455 counterparts and the motors of the 455 are based on 1930s tech apparently

[@mauwahtsang349]

Kcr engine?

[@boi497]

The MLR and the class 317 uses the same motor
