Don't know how much longer I'm going to keep this up, but two landmarks were passed today.

First day with 23 units in passenger service
Aggregate total of 3,000 days.

I am not saying it is wrong, but are the units at Eastleigh actually stored ? I can't say regarding the actual situation today, but in the past, I have noted the units there to be "on the juice" with trail lights switched on (not really a "stored" situation). Is any preperation work being done at Eastleigh - in the past it was and test running was based there too.

Now that 701s have been in service for a whole year (well, one of them has.........) I thought it timely to transfer the record of which units have run, and when, to a new thread instead of having it hidden halfway down the 701 thread in the "traction" area. I little thought when I started recording them that there would still only be six diagrams a year later

To date (January 9th) only seven units have been in passenger service. (EDIT - By the end of March it is still only nine)

Totals, first and most recent outings (if blank, was in service on the day of the latest update)
(2024 dates in bold) Number in parenthesis is the number of days in passenger service, regardless of whether it was a complete diagram or not.

701011 arrived at Wimbledon from Long Marston on 05/11/2025.
A 701 came from Eastleigh to Wimbledon earlier the same day - I do not know which one.

== Doublepost prevention - post automatically merged: ==

Answer is 701052 from Eastleigh.

Looking overall per above posts 10 and 11 at Wimbeldon and 16 and 19 at Eastleigh. Is this correct?
If so, 6 at LM, 5 at M, and 6 at E and 1 at Derby. If 26 and 48 in service then 28, with 14 on SWR.ie 42 on SWR with 6 at Eastleigh which you would think would move to London rather than store so 80% could soon be in London.
Good progress.

A massive thanks to everyone who has posted movements in this thread. Updates since the last list (posted 1st November) are that 701026+701048 have entered passenger service, 701010+701011 are now on the SWR Arterio Network instead of Long Marston, 701052 is now on the SWR Arterio Network instead of Eastleigh, 701016 is now at Eastleigh instead of Marchwood and 701019 is now on the SWR Arterio Network instead of Marchwood.

If I've missed anything in the last 2 weeks please let me know. According to the other thread 701050 is now ready to enter passenger service so I'll try to post an update to include that and any other movements next week.

701022 and 701038 have been received by SWR and if I recall correctly then 701022 was delivered to Wimbledon in August/September whilst 701038 was delivered to Eastleigh in October.

I have not noticed 701022 at the London end after several visits to Clapham and Wimbledon.

I have not seen any reports of them leaving Marchwood. But it is possible 022 left IF after 18/10. But 038 could have left anytime.
However neither have been seen by me in London sidings (Wimbledon or Clapham) on several visits.

What is meant by ‘SWR Arterio network’?
Click to expand...
SWR have published a map of it on their website, as referenced from this post in the 701 discussion thread on the traction forum:

Class 701 'Aventra' trains for South Western Railway: progress updates

What 450 booked work? Diversionary route retention for Basingstoke will be kept up by running an empty 450. These runs actually are already in use as either 5Sxx or 5Cxx from Waterloo to Woking via Richmond or Hounslow. There is no need for 450s to work the Windsor lines once all 701s are in...
