BR(S) convention meant
each set was normally arranged with the coach conveying first-class (CK)
positioned adjacent to the higher-numbered BTK. On four coach sets this
convention also positioned the corridor to the compartments on the same-side
placing first-class towards the middle of each four-coach set.
Liveries
Original livery was lined Olive with the lining being dropped
c.1935. Malachite followed and Lancing Carriage works was still releasing
repainted stock in SR Malachite Green early February 1949 with Crimson Lake
(and Cream) appearing at least by March 1949.
The last Crimson Lake & Cream (CLC) vehicle outshopped from Lancing carriage works appear to be loose-allocated High Window Maunsell SK S1376S on 17th July 1956 which followed set 466 (all of its eight coaches variously outshopped between 18th June 1956 and 10th July 1956) and individual coach 7964 (from CLC Set 440) along with Loose Second Open 1218.
The first BR Green-livery set outshopped by Lancing
was set 974 on 11th July 1956 and the on the 18th
July 1956 Bulleid SK S61S was the first coach repainted from Crimson Lake &
Cream into Green-livery.
Abolition of Second Class
Third-class was designated
second-class following the abolition of second-class
by British Railways on
Sunday 3rd June 1956. In the tables below coaches are described
as Third-class unless they were inserted into a set after 3rd June
1956 when Second Class is used.

not take place in time for the 12th June

Set 470
Set 470 was formed for
Eastbourne to London services. The high amount of first-class accommodation
along with the small baggage capacity of the 6 compartment brakes (BTK)
suggests this was intended for business commuters. The set often ran formed
with Pullman coaches inserted in its middle.
Lewes Tunnel had been constructed
with a reduced six-foot at its southern-end requiring an OPPOS (i.e. no
opposing moves) for certain bogie stock particularly post-1907 builds (until
then coaches were 86 wide).
Because of this
operational restriction at Lewes Tunnel, in May 1927 running of 9 wide
Restriction 4 stock ceased between
Keymer Junction and Lewes; the exception being the Newhaven boat train
(Restriction 4 stock) which was allowed to continue provided the opposite line
was kept clear of traffic while the boat train traversed Lewes Tunnel with an
OPPOS in operation.
In 1935 the southern-end of Lewes tunnel was widened
for the new trains to be used on the electrification scheme to Eastbourne and
Ore (there is a visible step within the tunnels lining on the down side).
As
a consequence, in May 1927 set 470 was transferred to Worthing to London
services to operate with counterpart set 469 often with the addition of a
Pullman (contemporary reports identify this arrangement as ongoing without set
changes in 1933).
Circa 1933 set 470 was
reduced to 3 coaches (acquiring CK 5656) following electrification of the
Brighton mainline and Worthing routes and allocated to London, Bognor and
Portsmouth services until they were electrified in July 1938, thence
transferred to the Eastern section on general workings.
5th May 1941
Appendix to Carriage Working Notice (CWNA) shews set 470 working London,
Ashford, Maidstone East, Minster and Ramsgate services.
June 1947 CWNA shews set
470 working London, Margate, Ramsgate, Dover and turnover set at Stewarts Lane.
30th June 1952
through to 11th June 1956 CWNA shews 3 Cor set 470 working London
Margate Ramsgate Dover East Grinstead Tunbridge Wells West Brighton
Lewes Eastbourne and turnover set at Stewarts Lane.
From 15th June
1957 set 470 was strengthened to 8 set being berthed at Bellingham or Walmer in the Summer and Bellingham in the Winter. However,
set 470 is absent from the 15th June 1957
CWNA having been withdrawn.

There was a shortage of sets for
CWNA E Tonbridge East Grinstead Tunbridge Wells West - Brighton - Redhill
- Reading Southern services and the decision was made to permanently split
four-coach sets in half. Given their inter-related history all of the 2 Cor E sets numbered 180 to 192. 217 to 219
and 444 to 467 have been covered here.
Maunsell Low-Window sets /set numbers 445 to 459 and 465 to 467 were
reused for the 2 Cor sets in the number range 444 to 467.
In terms of the 2 Cor E sets, all but two were withdrawn when the
Redhill to Tonbridge line became diesel operated with 3R Tadpole
units in January 1965. Sets 190 & 192 (plus CK 5627
ex.219) survived until the closure of Eridge to
Hailsham in June 1965 thus effectively ending the use of Restriction 1
passenger stock.

Set End-Numbering
On 23rd December 1963 two
coaches, BSO 4447 (set 450) and CK 5618 (set 189) were standing in the
departure platform at Tunbridge Wells West and were damaged by a light engine.
A report was made by one of the Waterloo inspectors (RH Griffiths) and it is
interesting that his report identifies set 450 when BSO 4447 was reassigned to
2 Cor set 461. From this it can be reasonably assumed that the sent end numbers
had not been updated. The report is covered under set 450.

Compilation |
||||
In terms of information
sources Glen Woods regularly used the terms Lancing and Waterloo record
cards although this is slightly misleading as the so-called Waterloo record
cards were maintained at the CM&EE Rolling Stock Records Office, based in
Tooley Street, London Bridge (until 1966 when they moved to the newly
constructed Southern House at Croydon). The Carriage & Wagon Notice Appendices (CWNA) are a useful
source of information although to contain discrepancies and could not cover
changes made after publication. |
