    Part 2 : Current Southern Rolling Stock
    Here's Part 2 of our look at the Trains operated by Southern past and present featuring the Class 377, 171, 455 and 313's.
    The continuation of what will hopefully be a new series exploring the trains and rolling stock employed by each of the franchises.
    Filmed on a Panasonic HD100 720p, a Sony MiniDV camcorder and an iPhone X.

    As a Brighton local I won't miss the 313s when they go. They are well pass their sell by date and need replacing.

      Oldest trains on the national network now so I suspect their days are numbered. Covid probably helped them stay in service for a few more years then they would otherwise had done

    Always remember the introduction of the 313, everyone was furious the coastway was getting rolling stocks over 20 years older than what it already had. Won’t miss them but will always remember using them late at night after I’ve had a few too many 😂

      I had to ride on the 313 to go to an eye hospital appointment in Brighton and I am bound to say I quite liked it! Compared to the Electrostar, it seemed to me there was better ventilation, although it has to be admitted the 313 rattled along a bit!

    You say the 313 is the oldest stock in regular use, but the class 43 HST are still in very regular use around the country including on GWR, X Country and in Scotland. Also the class 57 is in regular daily (or nightly) service on the Riviera sleeper service. These all pre-date the 313 by a very long way in the case of the class 57.

      Your right, however the 313's are the oldest emu's working on the national rail network operating standard timetabled services.

    Is it Network Rail that issues Class Specifications and Numbers?

    • @BPMR
      @BPMR  Год назад

      Trains are allocated a number on the TOPS system where there is space. I'm not sure who is ultimately responsible for this, could be NR or the ORR.

      @BPMR  3 года назад +1

      To be honest I can't remember what they said, They only seem to appear on the 377/3's so could have something to do with the services on the South Coast at the time.

    Update: Southern Class 455's has officially been removed in 2022. 313217 is now being used for parts which now makes it 19 Class 313s.. A class 171 has been moved to EMR as predicted but now it awaits its new paint scheme and interior. The rail tour for the 313's is Unknown as well with their withdrawn date.. rumours are the tour will be in May or July...

      I've not heard of any plans to replace the 313's yet but I can't imagine that they have much time left. I'll be surprised to still see them around by then end of the decade.

      Thank you. This was one of my earlier documentary videos and its a learning curve to balance the audio right. Some of my earliest videos, the 'from the archive series' have no music or commentary, just the sounds of the trains (once you get past the opening credits).
