I think the reason why the 442 units were taken out of service was due to an issue where they weren’t compatible with certain signals I think. They then had to do further testing with them and eventually they didn’t re-enter service. Hope that answers your question.
Brilliant video Kieran! What is the music for this intro I really like it. Can't beat a good ol 442. They look really nice in the SWR livery and sound really nice when they are at speed even if they did used to screw up the signals. (answer)
One of the half hourly Weymouth-Waterloo services doesn’t stop there goes from Basingstoke-Clapham jct then Waterloo whisky the other stops from Winchester-Woking-waterloo
The Exeter service at 11:46 would be way too short!? Only 2 carriages short? Ridiculous idea. There won't be enough seats! Also the 11:50 to Waterloo? Only 3 carriages long? 2nd ridiculous idea,but not as ridiculous.Again,there won't be enough seats!
Tbh it's near Mercedes place at Brooklands where they have some F1 cars (might have driven a car there before :p) and a a heritage place with a very special Concorde plane. when I was driving I kept on getting distracted by the trains lmao

Correct indeed!
The class 442s were taken out of service with swr because they messed the signals up and caused failures.

Great video! How come some of the SWR trains have grey instead of white on the new livery, I'm perplexed.

I believe they swapped it out at Salisbury anyway which is good.
Those Siemens Desiros racing out of the station is a bit like Formula One but the Railway Version
