The BREL/Metro Cammell Class 465 and Class 466 Networkers should still remain with Southeastern for at least 10 years. As they are still reliable DC 750v 3rd Rail trains that were built in 1991-1994 (Class 465) and 1993-1994 (Class 466).
Agree. The class 707's which South Western ended up not wanting, and were dumped on South Eastern, are truly along with the class 700's , the most uncomfortable trains you can travel on with their Fainsa Sophia ironing board seats.
Why are South Eastern trains always so dirty? It's nothing new. Even 20 years ago or so it was noticeable how poorly they compared to Southern, for example.
Great video!
Great and informative video as always :P
Thank you.
Good video!
Excellent video Mr B. Great to see that its still gets a bit chaotic when it goes wrong. Well done 🤓
Ah, James Bond's train arrives at 9:40 I notice...
Is this what South Eastern Railway Damage Control Mode looks like?

1:50 - . . . much as it was during the days of LU service?
12:02 why is this service operated by a 375? I wonder if this is a permenant allocation.
I think my caption might be wrong. I'm away at the moment but will check back to my original records when I get home.
I dont think i have seen platforms lettered rather than numbered....interesting
Not that unusual. Waterloo East is letters and the new Crossrail platforms are also letters.

The excuse always used to be water use control measures due to lack of rainfall. When that didn't apply the washer was usually broken.
