Anyway , why would district stock ever run through to tilbury anyway?

1910 - 1939 there were through trains between Ealing Broadway and Southend,
electric-hauled over the District between Ealing Broadway and Barking, and
changing engines there.

Short clerestory roofed electric engines that had the same profile as
the District's EMUs.
