EMU Class 421. This is unit 421719 on an eastbound working to Eastbourne passing non-stop through Berwick station on Thursday June 10th, 1999. The rear of the train shows a red panel on the roller blind in lieu of a taillight. The yellow patch on the roof indicates the carriage with first class seating as do the number 1s on the leading edges of the driving cab.
Upper quadrant signals were still in use although the traditional level crossing gates had been replaced with automatic half barriers.
