Hi all, today im making sprite diagrams for all the Networkers and i started with my local networkers, the 465 and 466. Now im moving on the the 365s but i noticed on the wikipedia page for them it listed them as working under South Eastern Trains. I'd like to know if they served SET long enough to get the SET white and yellow doors livery or if they just stuck to the Connex's yellow and blue and NSE's toothpaste livery before being moved north.

Thanks, Daniel

I don’t think they ever did, they simply remained in Connex livery. From pictures it seems they transferred still in Connex livery before being reverted to NSE livery by WAGN

Only ever this version of Connex livery:
8685.1106521380.jpg

(in my view, the best of the Connex liveries as the NSE blue around the windows set it off better than the mostly white used on other stock).

I don’t think they ever lost NSE because of the paint warranty. They just had vinyl which was removed when they transferred to WAGN.

Yes this is absolutely right. They received Connex vinyls, which were removed upon transfer to WAGN revealing their original NSE livery. No 365 was ever painted in full Connex white livery.

One special case was 365502, which was loaned to WAGN a short time after the Potters Bar derailment, and ran in Connex vinyls on the GN route. Albeit with WAGN decals hastily applied on top of the yellow section.

This page on the Southern E-Mail Group site may be helpful, includes some photos of their use on the ex-BR southern region:

Any particular reason why this is grey not white? Also any reason for not putting any logo on?

in the case of the livery, its just due to all reference images i've found for Connex SE Networkers always have them as grey-blue and as for the logos, they simply dont look good at this scale
