460_GatEx1.jpg (49489 bytes)

Juniper 460 of Gatwick Express seen upon short turnaround at London-Victoria.

These units operate a clockface service (15-min interval) to Gatwick Airport against fast services of South Central Trains.

This is the Driving/Luggage Trailer. The luggage van is used to carry luggage checked-in at Victoria, but this facility has been suspended in the aftermath of 09/11.

There is also a small lounge for First Class passengers at the other end.

These units have been nicknamed "Darth Vader", owing to their unusual end face...

One can spot a Class 377 Electrostar of South Central Trains on the left.
