Hello everybody its Foxy speaking and yes, sadly speaking of which the era of a class 313 electrical multiple unit run Southern Rail Network has sadly come to an end :-(. After nearly 50 years in working service, well realistically after 47 years of working service the class 313 electrical multiple unit trains have finally retired. Their farewell tour took place on Saturday 29th April 2023 just to say which was a rather emotionally moving but good day as we celebrate in remembrance their working years of service and the time all rail trainspotters got to really appreciate those trains as they are now more or less heritage property now for one to look back on and find out all about their interesting working history. But it really is sad they are no longer in working service as I was really most certainly hoping they would carry on working until about 2033 or 2040 something like that but apparently not really. Wonderful trains. They will certainly never be forgotten. I saw the 313-201 and 313-213 running the railtour at Brighton Station twice and Eastbourne Station once if I could dare explain where I saw them. The name of their tour was 'The Sussex Rambler' and for those of you who maybe confused as to what BLS stands for it stands for 'Branch Line Society' meaning this was technically a Branch Line Society run tour really. Thanks everybody for watching :-).
From Foxy :-).
