Description
Here we see Gatwick Express 460008 passing Tonbridge working down from Stewart’s Lane to Ashford Down Sidings - the unit would be split into 8 sections and sent by road (!) to Doncaster for conversion into a 458/5. Purpose built trains an airport route discarded after around 13 years. Replaced by 442’s and since 387’s which are awful. The mind boggles....

Enjoy!
