I am travelling from London Bridge to Brighton on a TL service on Sunday and wondered what stock was used?

Thank You
Tommy

Think they're still using Southern 377's, unless the 700s have snuck onto LBG services under my beak.

There are normally no Sunday services from Brighton to London Bridge. The Bedford's appear to be running to London Bridge this Sunday as the core is closed and I would be very surprised if these were not 700's.

See https://www.thameslinkrailway.com/t...rney/planned-engineering-work?date=2017-09-24 for details of service amendments.

The M-F service was supposed to have converted to 700 operation this week.

indeed Thameslink is 100% 700s now without exception

interestingly at least one 700 still has the old logos so catch that one while you can

700125 has seat back tables fitted and should be out and about now with higher numbers also fitted

I presume the 1st class declassified at the rear rule still applies?- been a while since I used one.

Hopefully a 700 and not a hired 377 tomorrow then. Thank you for the replies

Well, it wouldn't be hired anyway. Thameslink and Southern are the same company.

Sneaky 700's. I must pay more attention.
