Ex GWR class 387 on southern?

[ow3n]

Just saw a GWR 387 pass on the BML at Angmering station but with the southern logo’s. Since when did they have one of these? Operating a Brighton to Southampton service.

GTR have had three for some time, but they have been operating on Great Northern services. As part of the Class 379 introduction with Great Northern, they (and many other 387s) are being transferred south for use on Southern workings.

I think 387173 & 174 are south of the river now. 387172 I believe is still in service on GN as of today.

As stated in the other thread, the intention was to transfer them earlier, however software issues made it easier to kick the can down the road and keep them north of the river until a solution could be found, which presumably now has been.
