L409 (51386, 59496 & 51344) passes Hinksey Yard on 19 January 1991 with the 2C41 13:51 Banbury to Reading Network SouthEast service. 1991 was the last full year that these Pressed Steel units had the monopoly of these Thames Valley local services. After over three decades of faithful service, they would soon be replaced by the new Class 165 Turbo units. |
