Up to about 1969/70, MLV+MLV+Cep+Bep+Cep was common on boat trains - effectively five units. *I think I recall workings later on such as 8Hap - four units. *My early notebooks unfortunately didn't include train formations. I've got a note that I travelled on a 5 unit train, 0910 Charing Cross to Folkestone, in 1971 orv 1972, 5x2HAP from Charing Cross, rear 4 detached at Tonbridge. I also have a note of a 4-unit train in 1971, 0940 Victoria to Ramsgate formed 2HAP, 2HAP, 4BEP, 4CEP, rear 4 detached at Faversham for Dover. 10 car EPB formations formed entirely of two car sets were not unusual in the last few months, especially once the Selhurst units moved to Slade Green sending many of the unrefurbished four car sets for scrap. But these were from another era of much simpler multiple unit control systems. What about modern units with computers? -- Colin Rosenstiel There was something about Group E and Group D stock and I can't find it in my files.  |
