We'd also like to remind people despite this loss, a unit survives in preservation at Strawberry Hill under the care of the Southern Electric Traction Group and your support should be shown to them to keep the legacy alive.

Gutted that this isn’t happening now, I know how much time and energy you have all put into trying to get this over the line for a long time.

The SETG raises a glass to the staff at Wimbledon Park who worked to make these trains the most reliable rolling stock in the country: not just once, but year after year for more than a decade. Their replacements face a massive challenge. We wish the team good luck.

A fortnight today we will be running all of our operational rolling stock at our spring gala, with lots of other things do. You can also buy a piece of our cafe (former a Cl. 153 153374) by buying a Rail Tag, with many thanks to Rail Tags for their collaboration and support.
