1966 - 4SUBs by the 'A' Box..

SR 4SUB EMUs 4667 and 4698 by the 'A' Signal Box at Clapham Junction station, in summer 1966.

The framework over the cabins was added during the last war, to support metal shielding to prevent shrapnel damage, but had been removed by this time, as the extra weight was causing structural problems.

The 4SUBs were all withdrawn from service by 1983, but some examples have been preserved..

Clapham Junction 'A' Box later suffered from more corrosion problems, and was decommissioned in 1990, and demolished.
