804 and 818 just departed on the 2340 from Victoria to Sutton
Indeed, wasn't sure this was going to run as intended but certainly turned out, got a video and everything! Got a bit of the Stewart's Lane ECS that followed it out, unfortunately my other device ran out of storage so only caught the front 4 departing, was 8-455 though. Thought they might cart off the sorry looking 805 on Victoria P9 but alas it was left behind, wonder when it'll be off...
So that I believe is a wrap as the last services have left their respective London termini, 39-40 years after they were first introduced. Know they were like Marmite for people but they must have put in hefty number of combined miles in their lifetime, plying some of the less than salubrious areas of the capital - trust me, speaking as a former South Londoner in the 90's/00's, saw my fair share of the states they got into to. Remember seeing a guy walk along the top of a moving one as it ascended the embankment just beyond Norwood, up to Bromley Junction and onwards to Crystal Palace...heaven knows how he managed it, must have been a circus performer!
