@@Solomon_Ceveryone hate desiros set because they’re replacing many beloved railway stock the desiros would’ve never existed if network Southeast was still in service by the year 2010 which the networker express and network universal and commuter Fleet came online but was traded in for Class 365 Network express
I remember seeing one of these for the first time as a Kid at Gillingham station.. It really did look futuristic considering we mainly had the Slam Doors at the time. Whilst I prefer the Class 375's for longer journeys, these still do their job pretty well :)
Thanks for your comment and also your subscription Euros! I know, these made their debuts when I was a kid and now they are the old gunslingers on the SouthEastern! I grew up in Norfolk in King’s Lynn and the near-identical 365s ran out of there - ever since then the Networkers have always fascinated me. Hopefully they’re still around for a little longer!
i grew up in Northfleet/Gravesend used to love jumping on these things to London & down your ways without paying my fare oops think i may actually prefer the slam door tho!
Very good video! Nice having these as the rolling stock I have to go on for my commute! One of my favourite things about the Class 465s are their bubble floors that I used to find often in these Networkers. High memories. Honestly I prefer the Blue interior of the Class 465/0s, Class 465/1s, Class 465/2s and the Class 466s, than the yellow Class 465/9s, as I feel it is more modern. USB ports and Plug sockets could extend their lives easily for another 10 years and I would never want to see them go, and when they inevitably go, I hope at least one Class 465 is saved. I have very fond memories of the old standard toilets in the Networkers, only found in the Class 466, as the Class 465 has an accessible toilet and a very large wheelchair area.
In the Network Southeast pic you can externally see how different the windows are. The one on the left having more squared windows while the one on the right having more curvier windows similar to that of the 365s
Great video, only one mistake I've noticed is that the 465s no longer go to Ashford at all due to a major timetable change in early 2018, however, I managed to spot a rare 466 going through, which was 466016, still good video
Hello from germany, thanks for this video. I got to know this series through TSW and now I know something about the history of the Class 465. Very informative!
Funny how time flies. It seems only yesterday that they replaced the EPB units. The EPB were all steel construction. Some were built on old Southern Railway underframes and had steel Bulleid type SR bodies. Most were on BR underframes with BR type bodies.
Indeed. Also funny how time has flied since making this video with some of the 465's being taken off the network and placed into warm storage. Time moving fast. Thanks for checking out the video 👍
Class 457 was originally built in 1982 as the Class 210. Basically the class 210 is a diesel version of the Class 317 EMU. The 210's would've been a replacement for classes 201 to 207 thumpers
Great video TrainsOnTheBrain! 😃 Very interesting video! I have travelled on these units between Waterloo East, Victoria and Orpington. Love the sound they make! (Especially the older style motor) 😊 It will be interesting seeing the new 707s coming to South Eastern soon! 😁

One of my favourites too! I’ve actually been going through my 465/466 footage this evening as I move footage onto a new storage drive - some of the 465/2, 465/9 and 466s are in storage, although I think a couple of others have since come back out of storage. Hopefully lots of life in the old dogs yet! Thanks for watching 👍
Thanks Paul! Now that would be nice - I’d have been happy with a SouthEastern fridge magnet, a cap or something, for all the good free publicity I’ve given them 🤣
I like the 465s and the ones that I caught today was 465007 & 922. The contrast between them is interesting it isn't months between the age of the units but years. After I went on one of the newest of the 465s that it's the oldest on the Southeastern fleet a class 707 number 707023 Citybeam took me to Charing Cross. Anything beats the class 345s today
Excellent! It's nice we can still mix between a variety of types of the unites and fittings. Seating-wise they are by far the most comfortable way to travel around SE metals.
I took 465190 from London Bridge to Woolwich Arsenal back in 2016. I might have taken one of these from Beckenham Jct to Victoria under K'nex South Eastern in 2002, but not sure
The 707s have only been announced for extra capacity, as well as there being 6 less 5 car Class 707s than Class 376s, which makes no sense as SE require more metro capacity.
Psst Afaik the 707s are replacing the newer 376 units (I know it sounds silly), which would be moved to GTR (Southern to be exact) to help relieve some of the 377/6s (or whatever the 5 car ones are) off metro services
Rumours at the moment, but there are a small number of 465's that will be taken out of service due to there poor underfloor conditions when 707's are introduced
@@trainsonthebrain There is no proof of it, it has been just a rumour going around for a few years. The 707s will not be replacing any 376s. As for replacing Networkers, the only evidence is a Southeastern RUclips video, which may or may not be accurate.

Hi TrainsOnTheBrain! What music did you use in this video… it’s really catchy and I want to use it in my own videos but credit you and the original song maker…
Thanks for your comment Joshua. Around the time of making this video, I was lucky enough to receive a promotion at work. Whilst that was a fantastic opportunity, it did mean that my workload changed drastically overnight, and it’s meant getting out to film new material very difficult in my new position. However, I’m in the middle of planning my next content items and normal service should be resumed from September onwards. Thanks for checking in 👍
Southeastern are getting a whole load of class 707's because South Western Railway (SWR) are getting rid of them. They're replacing them with a 'supposedly' superior train, but there seems nothing wrong with with the 707's, and they have a really impressive acceleration for a commuter/shorter distance train. The 465's have aged remarkably well given they're 30 years old. They look better than the older stock on SWR.
@@robtyman4281 It’s certainly interesting - perhaps it’s a cost-saving measure because of the pandemic too in terms of releasing them to another company? The 465s certainly have aged well - I also like the 365s and particularly their new front ends to modernise them further, at least cosmetically. Wouldn’t be against them doing that to some of the 465s. The questions remains which units will they replace - will it be some of the 465s, the 375s, or none of them?! What if they just ran alongside the current fleet? Lots of questions.
Well, it has a table, and it has a white piece of sheeting over part of the seat that says “first class” 😂 Apart from that you probably won’t notice much of a difference. In fairness on all of the units, they are extremely comfortable. Unless you’re partaking on a particularly long journey you probably don’t need to shell out for first class.
Hey Trains on the Brain I have a video suggestion for you 101 facts about Gatwick Express or Southern don’t mind what you pick and credit me if you like hope you like the suggestion
Hi Jacob - thanks for your note - this certainly isn't intentional, work has just become extremely busy of late so in-between making the videos I haven't had as much time to comment on other people's content of late. Keep up the good work with the channel!
Hi folks! Sorry for the lack of response - not long after starting this channel there were some unexpected developments at work and I was given a promotion. Which was great, but I got significantly busy overnight and I'm still playing catchup now. However hoping to resume normal service with the channel soon 👍
Thanks for checking in Luka! As I understand it they are still in warm weather storage - so although out of service for now there are no plans to scrap them yet. I believe a couple of the 465/9 units have since come out of storage and have been running again, so could still happen with the 465/2s as well.
Let’s hope so! The replacement tender has been issued and it looks like the 465s will last until at least around 2028, so they have time to bring back the /2s. However from what I’ve heard they have been having corrosion issues with 30 year old sea water stuck in the body shells (the met cam body shells were built in Italy and shipped from overseas.) you can still hear the sea water sloshing about if you listen very closely in some of the /9 units!

I saw the NSE colours before and I guess I saw the Connex Blue and yellow once. I like the grey and purple square moquette on the 465/9s.

@@BoomTrainspots I hope he is ok
@@srrk2508 we all hope he is
Hi folks! Sorry for the lack of response - not long after starting this channel there were some unexpected developments at work and I was given a promotion. Which was great, but I got significantly busy overnight and I'm still playing catchup now. However hoping to resume normal service with the channel soon 👍
Shame the remaining /2s were withdrawn
Thanks for checking in Luka! As I understand it they are still in warm weather storage - so although out of service for now there are no plans to scrap them yet. I believe a couple of the 465/9 units have since come out of storage and have been running again, so could still happen with the 465/2s as well.
Let’s hope so! The replacement tender has been issued and it looks like the 465s will last until at least around 2028, so they have time to bring back the /2s. However from what I’ve heard they have been having corrosion issues with 30 year old sea water stuck in the body shells (the met cam body shells were built in Italy and shipped from overseas.) you can still hear the sea water sloshing about if you listen very closely in some of the /9 units!
@@lukastrains793 Seawater? Is that what causes some to creak much more than others?
@@Solomon_C Yes the met cam units had there bodyshells shipped overseas
@@lukastrains793 I noticed some of them creak much more than others.
Nice

Creeping up! Thanks Hyper Hero 👍
I hate the Hitachi motors.
So do I BREL sounds better
But clearly Metro Cammel are the best mothers ever
@@lachlansrailwayproductions Yeah BREL had nice ones but Met-Cam definitely are the best.
Each to their own!
