L400 Ruscombe 28 March 1992

L400 (51332, 59484 & 51374) passes Ruscombe in the rain on 28 March 1992 with the 2A29 10:40 Reading to Paddington Network SouthEast service. After shuttling backwards and forwards on this line with suburban services out of Paddington since 1959, this unit would soon be off to pastures new, being replaced by the then new Class 165 Turbo units. It would first go to the North Downs line, and then, with the centre vehicle removed, to the Bedford to Bletchley line.
