Another splendid video. 'The Tornado Thumper' would be a cracking name for a rail tour using that unit.

Great film as always Jarred, the engines on that thumper remind me of the class 80 and 450 units we had over here in Northern Ireland that I grew up seeing a lot of, thumbs up from me mate and keep up the good work

Thanks very much bud, I haven't heard any trains from Ireland so I would have to take your word for it on that one haha, I have every intention to come over to that neck of the woods so I can get some filming done of the irish railways, what would you recommend?

Fantastic video there Jarred and a great to see the Hastings Thumper units in action still. Jammy bugger haha !! Give you a quick history on that class mate. It's the old class 201 units that were made up of sets of 6 cars each with two power cars at either end . I think there were 45 of these units and they ran the Hastings to London Charing Cross and Hastings to Cannon Street services up until 1986 when they were withdrawn and replaced by the class 421CIG and 423 VEP sets. The reason for the straight-sided carriages was that conventional trains could not fit through the tunnels between Hastings and Tonbridge, so straight-sided carriages had to be made. The set you saw there was made up of two power cars (Mountfield and Tunbridge Wells) are from two different sets (numbers 1001 & 1013), two carriages from two other sets and the middle two are from class 421 CIG and 421 CEP respectively.

Well I greatly appreciate the information. I can safely say I never knew the background of the class or this very set that I saw on that day!
