Farewell to Slam-door units and to Connex running the South Eastern Trains franchise...

Standard-class car of a Class 423 of (ex-Connex) South Eastern Trains, seen upon turnaround at London-Victoria.

While these units have primarily been designed for suburban services (hence the numerous doors), one can often see them on Kent Coast services...

The livery is that applied by Connex in 1997-2000. A new livery is expected once South Eastern Trains has been refranchised by early-2005.
