When did a 465/1 last run down to Dover in regular service (if ever)?

PTSO or platform depending on the weather
I know 465/9s were common on the Victoria - Faversham - Canterbury East - Dover Priory stoppers but today I saw 465.192 on the circuit, and running solo, instead of the usual 8-car 375

I thought SouthEastern had enough 375s, particularly as the service is still hourly...

If it was 2K94 09:42 Victoria to Dover Priory 12:08 or 1P36 12:18 Dover Priory to Victoria 14:21 that is booked as a single 465/0 or 465/1. Looks like it's due to stabling locations along with the summer season related changes rather than a shortage of either 465/9s or electrostars.

Pretty sure they were the booked traction on the Victoria - Dover service that ran Denmark Hill, Bromley South, St Mary Cray, all stations to Faversham then fast to Dover calling at Canterbury East only. I think that was how it was.
