Lea Valley Past Rolling Stock

[MatthewRead]

I've been reading on the LO class 710 thread that 310's, 312's and even 321's us to work on the lea valley lines. I know they use to work on the West Anglia main line while 305's and 308's worked the inner suburban services. So when did the 315's and 317's actually take over share the nostalgia.

When I was using the lines it was bishops stort via southbury using 302/305 and occasionally 307 4-car units, the lea valley was from hertford east using 305 3-car units, same units were on enfield and chingford routes. Prior to electrification the lea valley stoppers generally only went as far as cheshunt/broxbourne using class 125 rolls royce hydraulic DMUs which afterwards went to the GN kings cross/broad street suburban service until withdrawn end 1976.
