Waterloo

A mid afternoon scene at pre-Eurostar Waterloo. A 4CIG unit in Network South East (NSE) livery waits to depart. In the background is a Class 73 electro-diesel (of the type now to be seen hauling Caledonian Sleepers) in front of a Class 33 both in BR blue. Behind them is a unit of NSE Class 487 stock from 1940 belonging to the Waterloo and City underground line awaiting descent in the Armstrong lift. Originally ordered by the Southern Railway these units were replaced in 1992. London Underground took over the W&C Line (The Drain) in 1994.
