This is South West Train's Desiro EMU Class 450...and very nice it looks to in what is surely one
of the more dazzling colour schemes that will brighten up many a grey London day. Unlike the First Great Eastern Class 360s
these have corridor connections and as a result in our humble opinion, have an improved front end appearence.

Class 450 seen at Clapham Depot, the reason for this photograph was that it seemed like the unit still had a dent from its shunt at Northam Depot.

A picture that tells a story. When SWT became to first TOC to order new trains the Class 458 order was seen as a precursor to a larger order replacing Slam Door stock, the 400 series of EMU's. Due to technical difficulties it has been announced that in 2005 the CLass 458 Juniper units will be returned to owners. To replace the 400 series SWT ordered the Desiro unit - this picture was taken at Clapham Junction in early February 2004.

Of all the new liveries we have seen over the past few years this is we think one of the best
making really good use of vivid colours without becoming distasteful. This new class 450 EMU
of South West Trains was pictured at Woking on the 23rd May 2004.

Southwest Desiro 450 032 seen at Aachen West on 19 May 2004. For the transport
to UK, these EMUs are attached to normal freight trains (with adapter cars of
course, as normal freight cars have no Scharfenberg couplers). This train was
just brought to Aachen West by an electric loco and will be taken over by a
diesel, as the line to Montzen (Belgium) is not electrified.

Class 444 and 450 seen at Clapham Traincare Depot - the simialrities are apparent from the front, the differences are less than apparent from this shot. Firstly the 444 units are 5 Car units, 450's are 4 car units, seating on 444 units are 2+2 rather than a rather cramped 2 + 3 on the 450 stock, and finally the 450 has two sets of doors at two thirds, whilst the 444 have two sets of doors at the end of the carriages - guess which one I like best?
