I've done a quick search and there doesn't seem to be anything about this in this section of the forum - can someone confirm for me if there are any class 442 workings to Brighton on Saturdays now? It looks from the Southern timetable that there's a half hourly one but before May there was only one a day and I tried to catch that once and it came as three 377/4s.

Many thanks.

I've looked at the current timetable (which can be viewed here) and it seems that any journeys marked with a black square in the 'notes' row are operated by 442s.

Just the one diagram of pigs on Brighton fasts on recent Saturdays - 0806, 1036, 1306, 1536, 1806, 2036, 2306 off Victoria and return workings at 0649, 0919, 1149 etc. Everything else 377s of various combinations.

Drsatan, that's the timetable I was looking at which seems to imply a half hourly 442 service, four times more than what 87015 has experienced.

That's cool, thanks for confirming that I was right about the black sqaures. Does anyone know why the reality that 87015 experienced is so different from the timetable? Has that one diagram been happening every week or have there been Saturdays since the timetable change with no 442 workings?

Has anyone else had any experience of Saturday workings since the last timetable change?

Does anyone know if the 442s are still on the same diagram?

The 0806 VIC - BTN was 442s last Saturday 19/10 so i would assume they are still the same.
