What I loved about the 312s was that whistling sound they made just as they approached at speed. If you've got any footage of that I should love to see it. Great video.
Thanks. As far as I can see the main difference between the two is that 313s are three car units and some are fitted with a special third rail shoe and 315s are 4 car units. However generally they are assigned to totally different routes but on this occasion some may have been transferred because of a temporary shortage.
Back in the early 1990's after the closure of Broad Street, 313's were used on services to Watford Junction from Liverpool Street by the way of using the North London Line via Primrose Hill.
313s are dual voltage and 3 car. 314s are AC only and 3 car. 315s are AC only and 4 car. 507s are DC only and 3 car. 508s are DC only and were built as 4 car (although have since been converted to 3 car like the 507)
The Class 319, Class 313, Class 377, Class 378, Class 700, Class 717 and Class 777 are classed as dual voltage. With many more DC, dual voltage and AC trains to be built throughout the 2020s and onwards. With electrification still on the rise.
Alexander Dennis Enviro series Euston to Watford Junction services are DC 3rd rail so no need for Pantographs. You see the same thing today with 378 and 710 units at Euston.
You've probably found out by now, but the 3 is for AC multiple units, and the 15 designates it as the fifteenth AC multiple unit designed. The number afterwards is which subclass of that unit it is, so I think one of them was 315 825, so the subclass would be 8 and is the 25th within that subclass.
Pascal Farful you’re right with the first digit, but the last 2 don’t correspond to when the unit was designed. For example Class 390s were designed almost 20 years prior to Class 385s, and Class 374s are far more recent than 375, 377, 379 etc.

I'm really surprised as you captured Class 313s at London Liverpool Street at 3:37. Very nice video!

Very interesting to watch changing the lectric system from overhead to beneath and vv
How come 313011 at Euston 3:30 is pantograph down?

@@Cactus732 I thought Alexander Dennis made buses
The 319s looked amazing in NSE livery
That was the nse revised livery. Similar to the networker, very nice livery
2:08 HANG ON, WHAT STATION DID YOU SAY???! WOOOOOAAAHH! Its certainly changed! XD
stratford
needs more class 314 and 318.
They operate north in Scotland, this was captured in southern England hence they will not be there.
At 6:20 when you said 315s at Finsbury Park, they are actually 317s
Do you happen to have a list of class 319 headcodes?
The class 319 at 14:34 should be 319 049
3 years ago: watching trains
3 years later: still watching trains
guess some habits are hard to get rid of
317s for the win!
heyaa very interesting video =3 i was wondering for example what 315 stands for ?
Didn't know you're on UA-cam as well, but that's another story...

when you put built BR York does that mean they were built in york if so that's cool
TrainsAtYork most BREL units were built at York Works (it’s closed now)
