One of my friends at St. Cross invited me to a gig that her boyfriend's band was playing at a pub in Cowley. The band is called Tigerline, and they were very good!
After twenty four years on cross London suburban Thameslink duties 319369 has moved to the North West following the electrification of various routes in the area. It is seen here on the 20th December 2016 at Liverpool Lime Street working 1H46, 10:16 Liverpool – Manchester Airport.
Unit History
The class 319 units were built for the new north south cross London duties from the Midland Main Line to Southern Region destinations made possible by the reopening and electrification of the short link from Farringdon to Blackfriars. The units were built with a dual electrification capability (25kVA ac, 750v dc) and were built in two batches in 1987/88 and 1990. 319369 is from the second batch of twenty six units, built in 1990, which were classified class 319/1 and was originally 319169. These units were numbered in the range 319161–186. The formation of the second batch of units was similar to that of the earlier batch, except there was provision for first-class seating in one of the driving vehicles and the motor vehicles are fitted with a more modern Bracknell Willis High Speed pantograph. In the period 1997-98 the class 319/1 units had the first class compartments removed and renumbering into the 3193xx series.
