Will the tuesday last run be passenger?
2nd hand info seen elsewhere so can't 100% confirm, but apparently currently out on 2D19 arriving Liverpool Street at 11.13.

Apparently tommorow is the last day of London Overground class 315s with a sort of jolly occurring between London Liverpool street and Chingford. Does anyone know if this is the case please?

Thankyou
Will it be out in the morning?
RTT suggests no - there's a move booked to leave Chingford depot to get it to the platform at 11.40 before the trip and back to depot at 15.30 after the last working

would be good to see some pics if anyone can post them in due course - ref the Tuesday service
315802 has had its set numbers in that font for a while but only on the 64463 end.
If I've followed the diagram correctly, the last booked 315 working on the Cheshunt route should be 2D63 21.31 Cheshunt – London Liverpool Street.

That’s an excellent shot in platform 1 at Liverpool St, shows off the roof architecture really clearly too.
LO 315802 + 315807 will be bringing the curtain down on 5 years of LO 315 operation tomorrow and by chance, it happens to fall on the 2nd anniversary of the first 315 scrap move (that being 315850’s last journey from Wolverton to Booth’s on 20/10/2018). Speaking of scrap moves, I believe another pair are off to Newport this Thursday

Slight change of plan it seems. Units going to stay out from 1510 dep chingford and work full diagrams up unitll 20.30 minimum with the roundtrips to Enfield/Chingford/ Cheshunt between. So there should be plenty of time to catch it tommorow.

Just seen the 5Q20 and its 315830 & 315824
315830 + 315824 | 5Q20 At Milton Malsor 20/10/20
315830 & 315824 work the 5Q20 1107 Northampton Tc Up Sidings to Ilford E.M.U.D. past Milton Malsor. With the last two London Overground 315s out on their final day of service today, I went out to catch 315830 & 315824 on their final run under their own power. The pair were towed, by 37884, for...

Just to clear up any doubt, 315802 and 315807 did the planned Chingford - Enfield - Chingford round trip and went back into Chingford sidings at 15.30. They haven't stayed out as suggested last night.
Sad to see them go but plenty of enthusiasts turned out to see them off. Staff were on hand to give out souvenir badges and pens at Liverpool Street and there was even a DJ at Chingford. Nice to see the 315s' passing on the West Anglia locals getting some recognition.
It might be nostalgia clouding my judgement, but I was really disappointed with the two 710s I rode. Much rougher riding than the 315s, plenty of squeaks and rattles from the couplers and appalling seating. All longitudinal seating inside is a strange call for fairly lightly used routes outside the peaks. I really think the 315s were ideally suited to routes like Chingford.
