Class 319

In March 1994 319008 was running with "Network SouthCentral" in place of "Network SouthEast", but still with the NSE markings - and with the Thameslink diamond present next to the doors. Photographed at Victoria. photograph by John Lewis

Once the South Central franchise had been awarded to Connex, some of the 319s allocated to South Central were given Connex logos centrally on the coach sides. 319003 was photographed in this state at Purley in June 1997. Note the NSE markings and lettering had been removed. photograph by John Lewis

Some units had the logo moved and "connex south central" added. Note that not only was the logo moved to the left, it was also moved down a little and applied at a slightly different angle.

Just occasionally a class 319/2 Connex Express unit has strayed from its proper service. On this occasion in 1997 a very clean 319215 was photographed being used on the 6:09pm service to Horsham, and 319003 was formed in the 6:02pm to Brighton.
