Yes...not only are the class 73s still at it...but looking immaculate as well! They first started on the Gatwick Express way back in 1986 and this happens to be the very first of the sub-class 73 201. Most days at least one set will be out and although the class 460s are starting to perform well, the need for these new units to have a major overhaul later this year means the 73s will be required to fill in taking them into 2005. This picture was taken at Clapham Junction on the 12th May 2004.
