Morning,

My elementary 6am research suggests that whilst it’s not on the London Overground South London Line, it can be considered to be on the South London Line. Wikipedia isn’t gospel but I’m happy on this occasion to accept its suggestion.

We’ll continue from South Bermondsey with any further issues or debate on the topic to be highlighted to the QM team.

Thanks all :)

Nunhead was also re-electrified—albeit from AC to DC.
Was Nunhead really originally electrified using the AC overhead system? I thought that was only installed on the ex-LBSCR suburban lines. As part of the ex-LCDR/SECR system from Victori/Holborn Viaduct/Blackfriars to North West Kent, I would have thought that it would have been electrified on the DC third rail system from the outset. Nearby Peckham Rye was originally electrified on the overhead system....in fact it had one of the depots for the LBSCR AC units.

Wrong station it would seem—will change the station. (Amended to Gipsy Hill)

Class 321s were new to Network SouthEast for work on Birmingham New Street to London Euston semi-fast and stopping services, which also called at Wolverton. They operated on the West Coast Mainline until as late as 2015, when the remaining units were transferred to either ScotRail or First Capital Connect (later Great Northern). Today, some of the former WCML units can be seen travelling on the Great Eastern Mainline, for example between London Liverpool Street and Southend Victoria.

STOURBRIDGE TOWN is also the only station on a short single-track spur less than a mile in length.

sorry for the capitals but the bold button isn't working for some reason

If you catch a Docklands Light Railway train here, one destination you could be going to is Stratford International, which is also at the end of the line with National Rail (probably stretching) connections.
