Yes, 313018 on GNIt was 018 wasn't it?
Also can I just ask, how many trains operate the Seaford services on a Sunday? Does it reduce to two diagrams or stay as three? Just wondering as these are where I'll be most likely to see 313s. Thanks

Pretty sure I read somewhere it was chopped at Sims Newport in 2019, or I might have dreamt it. wibbleIt was 018 wasn't it?
Stays as three diagrams on Sundays.Also can I just ask, how many trains operate the Seaford services on a Sunday? Does it reduce to two diagrams or stay as three?
Chopped as were all the other great northern setsPretty sure I read somewhere it was chopped at Sims Newport in 2019, or I might have dreamt it. wibble
6 car 313 and a 4 car 387 (207)Off topic but 1x 6 car 313 out on the football fasts on falmer today. Down from the usual 2 6 cars, then again, at least it's not a 6/377
Quite a good result for Brighton too!Off topic but 1x 6 car 313 out on the football fasts on falmer today. Down from the usual 2 6 cars, then again, at least it's not a 6/377
313202 reported to be withdrawn and getting used for spares:
(Can't copy text from tweet due to being on phone)
313202 has reportedly been withdrawn by @SouthernRailUK and is being used for parts recovery along with 313214/217.
I think this was inevitable. The end is definately coming now. The tweet also mentions 214 and 217 so I guess these are now officially "withdrawn"313202 reported to be withdrawn and getting used for spares:
Looks like a 10.16 to Selhusrt allocated, maybe the 313s are on this working?9 car 313 sitting in lovers walk
215 213 208
Just for the wheellathe?203 & 206 at Selhurst atm
If so, strange they aren't going to Selhurst for component recovery,Platform end wibble is that 202/214/217 are all to go to Eastleigh for spares recovery and scrapping in the next few weeks. But don't quite me as reliable.
All backed up by the fact they're showing CASCADE advised by my colleague who uses yardmaster software .
Apart from the lathe does selhurst actually do any 313 maintenance? It seems done at lovers walk unless I'm wrongIf so, strange they aren't going to Selhurst for component recovery,
Maybe they'll get scrapped on site then by Raxstar rather than at Newport
It appears that if a unit has had a flashover it goes there for repairsApart from the lathe does selhurst actually do any 313 maintenance? It seems done at lovers walk unless I'm wrong
Why is that strange? They're maintained at Lovers Walk.If so, strange they aren't going to Selhurst for component recovery,

Because I thought Selhurst did the major mechanical stuff, heavy lifting etc.Why is that strange? They're maintained at Lovers Walk.
According to my friend Part-Time Spotter 8 today.Does anyone know how many 313s are currently used on a daily basis, as the Hove and some Portsmouth trains have been swapped to 377s?
Until may 22 it's 16 diagramsI appreciate one or two members are aware I have asked this question before, but I'm hoping if anyone else can help me with historical Southern Class 313 diagrams, I would be grateful for any help.
I am in the process of printing up some archival pictures and didn't think to save unit diagrams off-line....
Cheers but I am looking further back...from 2013....Until may 22 it's 16 diagrams
