3417 returns to passenger traffic
Back in January, the Southern Electric Traction Group managed to get their preserved 4-VEP back on the mainline after a long period of restoration. Today, it carried passengers for the first time in many years as it took part in the Bluebell Railway’s diesel gala.
This video is taken at Kingscote. The first clip if of the VEP being propelled towards Horstead Keynes. Then a Class 20 (D8188) hauled train arriving in the same direction, followed by the 4VEP arriving again, this time with 33111 leading.
Unfortunately I was only at the Bluebell for a short time and didn’t get much video.

Audio of the Keyham Siren (Klaxon CS8) sounding. I was going to film the siren itself across the car park, but there were a couple of (presumably MOD) blokes giving me the evil eye. So to play it safe I went to a park on the other side of the railway and recorded from there. Not a great recording but in person it makes the hairs on the back of your neck stand up.

      @@Jeagles Ah right.. well, I am always happy to get new trains (I currently go into the city around midday from Richmond so it's almost always a 455), even if it is better late than never. Although I'm not a fan of the ironing board seats that seem to be popular these days.. Air conditioning will definitely be very appreciated come the summer though. On one hand, the old trains are very nostalgic - it's such a historic electric railway just in general, and then to use trains still trooping away 40 years on, before getting on the bakerloo line which feels like even more of a heritage railway these days.. but on the other hand, such a well used system does deserve something a bit more cutting edge.
