Last london overground class 313

[anthony263]

Just read that 17th september is to be the final day of operation of the class 313's with London overground.

Here is the diagram for the final class 313 :

-

Last 313 on 17th September will be:

16:38 Willesden Junction - Clapham Junction

17:10 Clapham Junction - Stratford

18:29 Stratford - Richmond

19:42 Richmond - Stratford

20:52 Stratford - Richmond

22:16 Richmond - Stratford

THEN

23:42 Stratford - Willesden Junction (Low Level) - as previously reported.

The train will go into Platform 2 at Willesden where a 378 will arrive at Platform 3 to enable people to take side-by-side shots of classmates.

I believe it is also making a 5 minute call at Primrose Hill just after midnight "for photos" but the doors will not be opened, which suggests it's for invited professionals / insiders who will presumably be using the cab vestibules to get onto the platform!

Are there any public views of the derelict station? Not that I would be there at that time of night anyway...!!

Fwiw most of the platform buildings at Primrose Hill were demolished about 2 or 3 years ago. (The modern station building upstairs in still in use - last time I passed it was a florist). But if you either very tall, or get a leg up, you can get a reasonable view of the platforms from the (pedestrianised) road bridge above.
