    Double third rail query

    508 and 455 had power jumpers. 507 didnt, because they worked underground single bore tunnels. When 508 tranferred to Merseyrail, the were removed. later 507 and 508 had them installed. As far as aware all southern emu had them fitted. EPB, CEP, CIG, REP, and so on.
