Express Electric
Trains
for the Brighton Line
Alongside
the construction of the 4 LAV units in 1931 /1932 for the semi-fast and
stopping services on the newly electrified Brighton line, came the twenty-three
6-car corridor units for the express services. These comprised twenty
6 PUL units and a further three 6 CITY units which had a higher
proportion of first class seating for use on certain
business trains.
Experimental
Unit No.2001
Prior
to the introduction of the production units, an experimental unit numbered 2001
was operated on the Brighton Line in the autumn of 1932. It consisted of three
modified steam-hauled coaches and a Pullman with a new motor coach at each end,
similar to those which eventually appeared on the
production units.
Built
in October 1931 to HOO order number 590, these motor coaches were numbered
11001 & 11002 and were of all-steel construction. 11001 was built by Birmingham
Railway Carriage & Wagon Company Ltd whilst 11002 came from Metro-Cammell. Each was were
65' 11" long, weighed 57 tons and were equipped with four
BTH 163 225hp motors with Metro-Vick control equipment.
To
diagram no.2108, car 11001 had flat sides without the lower tumblehome found on
11002 (diagram no.2109) and all the production vehicles, this being due to a
final decision on the body shape of main line electric stock only being
finalised after these vehicles had been delivered for comparison with the
main-line curved profile being preferred.
The
motor bogies on these two experimental motor coaches differed from the
production cars by having a smaller journal size of 10" x 5½", the
remainder having 11" x 5½" journals.
At
the leading end was the motorman's cab entered by inwards opening door,
followed by the guard's brake 8' 7¾" wide, a vestibule with side
access doors, then a seven bay passenger saloon seating 56 and another entrance
vestibule. Sliding doors divided the passenger saloon from the end vestibules.
These two motor coaches were completed in October 1931 and were subsequently
incorporated into two of the 6 CITY units, one each to unit no.3041 &
3042.
|
Pullman car schedule no.276 (Naomi with late Pullman
crest in unit no.3011) at East Croydon in 1965. Due to poor condition, Naomi
was replaced by schedule no.268 (Peggy) on 19th August 1965. Car
schedule no.276 was withdrawn 30th
October 1965 and sold for scrap to A. King Ltd. at Norwich on 18th
June 1966. |
Production
Units
The
main batch of 6 PUL and 6 CITY sets commenced service at the start of
1933 (though many were ready earlier) the first trial runs taking place in
October 1932 with units nos.2013 (first into traffic) and 2002.
Unit
no.2013’s pair of motor coaches were built by the Metropolitan Cammell
Carriage, Wagon & Finance Company Ltd (MCW)
trading as Metro-Cammell and unit no.2002 pair of
motor coaches were built by Birmingham Railway Carriage & Wagon Company Ltd
(BRCW).
All
the trailer coaches were built at Eastleigh and the units were marshalled with
the corridor sides of the three ordinary trailers all to the same side. The
Pullman cars were all built by Metro-Cammell at
Birmingham.
Motor
Coaches
The
order for the forty-four Motor Coaches was again split between BRCW
(11003 ‑ 11024) and Metro‑Cammell
(11025 - 11046). These vehicles were similar to experimental motor coaches 11001
& 11002, but differed by having a wider guard's
brake (10' 6½") which reduced the passenger saloon to 6½ bays and the
seating capacity to 52. The odd half-bay was situated at the van end of the
saloon and there was a partition towards the centre of the coach dividing the
saloon into 3 and 3½ bays. Smoking was permitted in the larger 3½ bay saloon.
Electrical
equipment was identical, but the vehicles were heavier at 59 tons, these
vehicles being to diagram No. 2107. Both motor bogies had shoegear fitted,
these bogies complete with motors weighing just under 16 tons. Bogies were
at 44' 6" centres and the vehicles were 63' 6" long over
bodies, 66' 2¾" over buffer faces. These motor coaches, like the
prototypes, were unusual in having non-standard box girder underframes without
any lower trussing.
Each
motor coach was fitted with a 5kw motor generator to supply 70v current for
lighting and control purposes, and emergency batteries were fitted in racks
between the cab and guard's compartment to supply train lighting for about 30
minutes in the event of the main supply being lost.
Trailer
Third Cars
The
four Corridor Trailer Third Cars in each unit consisted of a trailer third
(TTK), a trailer composite (TCK), a Pullman composite (PC) and another TCK.
The
TTK had eight full compartments each seating eight and a coupe
(half compartment) seating four. Full compartments were 6' 3"
wide whilst the coupe was 4' 5" wide. There was a lavatory at each end,
all joined by a side corridor, and the coach seated 68 third class passengers.
It weighed 35 tons and was 63' 6" long, (66' 2¾" over
buffers) and was marshalled in the unit with the coupe compartment at the
opposite end to the adjacent MBT. Smoking was permitted in the three
compartments at the MBT end of the coach and also the
three full and coupe compartment at the opposite end. Each compartment had a
side access door and there were four along the corridor side spaced opposite
the partitions of alternate compartments. The diagram No. 2010 was
allocated to these vehicles. Bogie centres were again at 44' 6" and
each trailer bogie weighed just under 7¾ tons, being of the ‘equalising
beam’ type.
Trailer
Composite Cars
The
two Corridor Trailer Composite Cars each had five first-class compartments
seating six and three third-class compartments seating eight. Third-class
compartments were again 6' 3" wide whilst the firsts were
7' 1¾" wide. Smoking was allowed in the two third-class compartments
at each end of the group of three and also in the two
first-class compartments adjacent to the third-class and the last one at the
opposite end of the coach. A side corridor was again provided as was a lavatory
at each end. The seating capacity was 30 first and 24 third.
Side
access doors were again provided in each compartment, there being five doors
along the corridor side, from the first class end
these being located opposite the partition of the first and second
compartments, opposite the doorway of the third and opposite the partition of
forth /fifth, the final two being opposite the partitions of the third class compartments.
A swing door in the corridor divided the first and third
class sections of the coach.
The TCK marshalled between the Pullman and the motor coach had
the first class end adjacent to the motor coach, the other had the first class
end adjacent to the Pullman
Weighing
36 tons and 63' 6" long (66' 3" over buffers) with
identical bogies to the TTK vehicles the TCK cars were to diagram No. 2309.
An
unusual feature of the side corridor trailers in the 6 PUL and 6 CITY
units (which was also found in the corridor trailer of the 4 LAV units)
was the double opening sliding doors separating the compartment from the
corridor. Also, the motor coaches had side windows which opened with a patent
balance system and the ventilation louvre was set above them. These features
were not perpetuated in the later 6 PAN sets.
Both
TCK and TTK cars were of steel panelled construction on a hardwood framing and
had timber and canvas roofs, all mounted on a heavy steel underframe built at
Ashford, whilst the bodies were constructed at Eastleigh works. The underframes
for all the 6 PUL trailers were to order No. HO 3275, the bodies
being to Order No.570.
Pullman
(Trailer Composite) Cars
Like
the motor coaches the Pullman (Trailer Composite) Car was of all-steel
construction and was built by Metro-Cammell. Each
comprised a vestibule with inwards opening doors, a small pantry followed by a
third-class saloon with 16 seats, a lavatory, a first-class compartment for
four, a first-class saloon with 8 seats, the kitchen & pantry area and another entrance vestibule. The short side-corridor
past the lavatory and first-class compartment area was on the opposite side to
that past the kitchen /pantry area. Each Pullman car weighed 43 tons and
was 68' 8¾" long over buffers, again having identical bogies to the
other trailer coaches in the unit.
Kitchen
equipment in the Pullman cars was all electric and supplied with 110v current
from a 20kw motor generator mounted below the underframe.
All
Pullman cars were allocated ‘schedule numbers’ in the Pullman 2xx series
from 263 to 278 and 294 to 300 (these numbers being carried on a cast steel
plate on the vehicle end). All these Pullman cars carried names.
When
built, the Pullman cars had some of their interior fittings supplied by
different contractors so not all were identical inside thus provide variety in
decor. All cars were mounted on equalising beam bogies, these not giving a very
smooth ride and following increasing complaints about poor riding and
deterioration of these bogies, a replacement programme was authorised in late
1955 to replace them with conventional leaf sprung bogies; all units were
fitted with these by 1958. Whilst units were being modified, some Pullman cars
were used in 6 PAN units for short periods. Bogies were modified at
Brighton works and exchanged at Peckham Rye shops.

Now
classed as a 6 PUL, former 6 CITY unit no.3043 leaves East Croydon platform 3
with an Ore /Eastbourne to Victoria train c.1965. Many of the original
Brighton Express stock units did not receive small yellow warning panels Note
the long-gone centre sidings between platforms 2 and 3 above the station’s
subway (now out of use). The
scaffolding alongside the new Post Office bridge would not now conform to
current safety requirements. |
6
CITY Units
The
three 6 CITY sets differed from the 6 PUL units in that the three
ordinary trailers were corridor firsts, each with seven 6 seat compartments and
a lavatory at each end. Each compartment was 7' 1¾" wide. These
coaches seated 42 first and weighed 34½ tons. They were also slightly
shorter than the 6 PUL trailers at 59' 0" (61' 8¾"
over buffers) and bogie centres were at 40' 0".
All
compartments had side access doors, there being four along the corridor side
located opposite the partitions between the first /second, third /forth, forth /fifth
and sixth /seventh compartments. The diagram number of these vehicles was 2506,
and the underframe order number was HO 3276 with the bodies again to order
No. 571. Smoking in all three of these coaches was permitted in three
compartments at one end and two at the other. One 6 CITY set (2043)
therefore seated 138 first and 120 third (12F and 16S in the Pullman
again). Units weighed 264½ tons and were 385' 6" long. They were
numbered 2041 ‑ 2043 but this was altered to 3041 ‑ 3043
from January 1937.
However,
units nos.3041 and 3042 both included one of the experimental 56 seat
motor coaches mentioned earlier and this increased their third
class seating capacity to 124 whilst reducing their overall weight to
262½ tons.
Into
Traffic
Sets
of trailers cars were ready at Eastleigh before the delivery of the Pullman and
motor coaches and entered service in numbered triples in the order that the
units entered traffic (i.e. unit no.2013 first into traffic with 10001 /11751/
11752), so trailer coaches were not allocated to units in any numerical
sequence.
The
6 PUL units were numbered from 2001 ‑ 2020 but were
renumbered 3001 ‑ 3020 in January 1937. The overall length of
these sets was 399' 0" and their total weight was 268 tons. They
seated 72 first and 236 third of which 12 first and
16 third were in the Pullman car.
Units
were coupled by means of side buffers and screw couplings, not the buckeye
automatic couplers fitted to contemporary steam stock.
Prior
to the introduction of the 6 PAN units for the Eastbourne /Hastings electrification
scheme, these units were described in operating publications as 6 COR, the
5-car all-Pullman units being 5 PUL. Those trains rostered to be covered
by one of the 6 CITY units were also shown as 6 COR with a footnote
specifying units nos.2041 ‑ 2043. Once the 6 PAN units
were in service the units were then shown as 6 PUL for the remainder of their
lives, the all‑Pullman units then being shown as
5 BEL.
|
Two 6 PUL units running together wasn’t particularly
common; here units nos.3013 & 3009 approach Haywards Heath forming the 4.48pm
Victoria - Ore service on Monday 6th July 1964. |
In
Service
From
new these units worked the hourly fast trains from Victoria to both Brighton
and West Worthing, whilst the 6 CITY units were used on rush hour
services to and from London Bridge. There were seventeen workings for the
6 PUL units and a further two for the 6 CITY units.
Following
the electrification of the lines to Seaford, Eastbourne
and Hastings in 1935, units then worked in conjunction with the 6 PAN
units provided for this scheme and ran through to Ore. They also ran on from
West Worthing to Littlehampton following the electrification of this section in
1938, again often coupled to 6 PAN units.
By
January 1935, the 6 CITY units were used as follows:
One unit worked the front
portion of the 8.30am West Worthing to London Bridge, then running empty to /from
Selhurst depot and formed the rear portion of the 5.4pm London Bridge to Hove,
whilst the other unit formed the rear portion of the 8.45am Brighton to London
Bridge and berthed at Peckham Rye until working the front portion of the 5.0pm
London Bridge to Brighton. Both units berthed at Lovers Walk overnight.
There was also one working on a
Saturday, a unit working with a 6 PUL unit on the rear of the 8.45am
Brighton to London Bridge, laying-over at Peckham Rye and forming the
front part of the 1.5pm London Bridge to Brighton.
In July 1939 there were two
diagrams for 6 CITY units, one working the 8.9am Littlehampton to London
Bridge (attaching to a 6 PAN at Worthing), then berthing at New Cross Gate
until running empty to London Bridge, both units then forming the 5.0pm to
Brighton.
The second diagram ran (again
coupled to a 6 PAN) on the 8.46am Brighton to London Bridge, thence empty
to New Cross Gate where the train was split, the 6 CITY remaining spare
all day until running empty to Victoria to work the 10.25pm to Littlehampton.
From
time to time one unit would deputise for a 5 BEL set on the Brighton Belle
service, and they were used occasionally for Royal specials, usually on the
Brighton line but on at least one occasion running from Portsmouth to Windsor,
unit no.3019 working this duty on 15th June 1953.
Enemy
Action
Unit
no.3017 and another unit were badly damaged by enemy action whilst undergoing
repairs at Peckham Rye Shops on 2nd October 1940 but were
repaired.
The
Pullmans were removed from the units from 4th May 1942 until 6th May
1946 for wartime storage, though some were back in use towards the end of April
1946. Some were damaged by enemy action whilst in store at Preston Park in
May 1943, May, Rita and Ruth all being particularly
affected. Other locations known to have been used for storage of these cars
were Hassocks and Coulsdon North. They did not all return to their
original unit.
The
units ran as 5 COR during this period, units nos.3001 ‑ 3020
then seating 60 first, 220 third, weighing 225 tons and being 330' 3"
long overall. In five-coach form units nos.3041 and 3042 seated 126 first, 108
third, weighed 219½ tons and were 316' 9" long overall, whilst 3043
seated 126 first, 104 third, weighed 221½ tons and was 316' 9" long.
Unit
no.3004 had three coaches damaged by enemy bombing at Lancing works in
September 1942 whilst nos.3011, 3015, 3019 and 3041 all suffered lesser damage
when Lovers Walk depot at Brighton was hit in May 1943. For a while some units
were steam-hauled at night from Brighton for overnight storage in the tunnel at
Kemp Town to protect them from enemy bombing.
A
further unit was damaged by a flying bomb blast whilst leaving Streatham Hill
sidings on 1st July 1944 whilst 6 CITY unit no.3043 was
similarly damaged whilst berthed at New Cross Gate on 7th July
1944.
All
these damaged units were quickly repaired. When the Pullman cars were restored
to the units in 1946, they had red oxide painted roofs initially, though they
were later painted silver-grey.
Post-War
Changes
Following
the war, the 6 CITY sets were altered to reduce the amount of first class accommodation. The three TFK cars in each unit
were downgraded, one to a TTK and the other two to TCK cars. The TTK now had 56
seats, and the TCK cars each had two third and five first-class compartments
and seated 30 first and 16 third. The unit totals were altered to
72 first and 212 third (unit no.3043 seated 208 third), and the
units were now classified as 6 PUL. New diagram numbers were issued for
the downgraded vehicles (formerly diag.2506) those modified to TTK becoming diag.2016,
those to TCK becoming diag.2319. This work was undertaken during overhauls at
Lancing works.

6
PUL no.3006 on the rear of the 10:08hrs Littlehampton to Victoria at Haywards
Heath on Wednesday 18th August 1965. At the time Harold Wilson was Prime Minister and ‘Help!’
by the Beatles was at the top of the music charts. |
Liveries
All
units were painted in standard SR green livery with quite complex lining out
with the Pullman cars in the usual chocolate and cream livery of that company,
again with lining out in red and gold and carrying the company crest on the
coach sides at each end with the vehicle name in the centre. The units received
a simpler livery without the ornate lining out during the war years and were
painted into the lighter malachite green at this time.
From
1951 overhauled units were turned-out in a slightly darker ‘Southern Region’
green.
When
Second
Class was abolished on 3rd June 1956
Third Class was renamed Second Class with and the
coaches were reclassified at this time so the trailer third (TTK) became a
trailer second (TSK) etc.
Units
started to receive small yellow warning panels on cab ends just before
withdrawal, unit no.3013 being the first in March 1964 with yellow ‘UIC’
cantrail bands denoting the first-class accommodation being applied at this
time. All units were withdrawn in green livery.

Smith Collection |
Working in Multiple
Like the 6 PAN and
5 BEL units, these units lacked a nose end power jumper and if running in
multiple with units of the 4 COR /4 RES /4 BUF family, their power jumpers
were not to be coupled to the 'Shed' socket below the offside cab window (the ‘shed’
socket was not equipped
with a power jumper line fuse).
Section 4 of British
Railways (Southern Region) Electric Multiple Unit Stock ‘Description &
Operation of Electrical Equipment’ handbook included a clear instruction to
this effect “When a 4-Coach Express Type Unit is coupled to a 5- or 6-Coach
Express Type Unit, the only jumper to be connected is the control jumper. The
power jumper must NOT be used”.
Maintenance
Routine
maintenance was carried out at Lovers Walk depot and heavy body overhauls at
Lancing works. Programmed bogie changes and electrical equipment overhaul was
done at Peckham Rye or occasionally Slade Green Repair Shops, in
later years also at Selhurst Repair Shop, where unscheduled repairs were
sometimes carried out. Units requiring heavy body repair were dealt with at
Eastleigh works.
The
Pullman coaches were on a different overhaul cycle and work on these was
carried out at Preston Park Pullman Shops, units sometimes running as
5-car with no Pullman whilst their coach was overhauled, and in this form were
usually restricted to London to Littlehampton rush-hour services.
Demise
& Withdrawal
The
6 PUL units continued in use on the Central division express services
until January 1964 when five were disbanded and donated their Pullman Cars to
the short‑lived 4 PUL units, the remaining coaches going for storage
at Micheldever. The replacement 4 CIG and
4 BIG units were later being delivered than planned and this catering
reorganisation allowed the withdrawal of five of the 6 PUL units, being
indirectly replaced by spare South Eastern ‘Boat Train’ units from the
4 CEP and 4 BEP fleets being diagrammed onto the Mid‑Sussex
line services.
Units
finally started to be replaced by new 4 CIG and 4 BIG units from
March 1965 and the last units to run in their original form were disbanded
in April 1966, the final run by a working 6 PUL unit being officially on
24th April 1966 after a L.C.G.B. Railtour,
though unit no.3041 actually remained in service for
about another month being used on 14.25 Brighton to Victoria and 17.23 return
with the Pullman car in use. [British Rail introduced the 24hr clock for public timetables on 14th June 1965 – the Western Region had already changed
15th June 1964].
Unit
no.3006 was not disbanded until June 1966 and many coaches saw further service with
seven of the Pullman cars being used in the temporary 4 PUL units, whilst
other vehicles were used in the ten 6 COR units formed in 1966 and other
TSK cars were used in the final ten 4 COR units reformed from disbanded
4 RES, 4 PUL and 4 COR (N) units.
Following
withdrawal, disbanded units were stored and split-up as some coaches were
re-used almost straight away, and a number of others
were stored for possible re-use in push-pull formations on the Oxted line,
though this did not take place. Motor coaches not used again were taken to
Selhurst or Durnsford Road for electrical stripping,
some then returning to their storage locations, whilst others went direct to
scrapyards.

Proposed Push-Pull Sets
During
early 1964 plans were drawn-up to utilise some recently withdrawn PUL & PAN
coaches, suitably modified and formed into 3-car ‘half sets’ which would run in
pairs as six coach trains on the ‘Oxted’ line services in push-pull
configuration with modified BRCW type 3 diesel locomotives.
The
Oxted lines had recently had nineteen new 3-car DEMU units put into service but
there were insufficient of these to cover all the peak-hour trains and some
steam loco operated services remained. At this stage there were also no
suitable electrically heated loco-hauled carriages available so the option of
using withdrawn EMU stock as a stop-gap measure was seen as a quick temporary
solution to speed-up the elimination of remaining steam worked trains, and
would also provide a possible contingency resource in the event of delays in
providing new stock for the Bournemouth line electrification, which also
entailed the provision of a large number of electrically heated stock converted
from existing Mark 1 coaches at York.
Plans
were far enough advanced for the allocation of vehicles to sets to be
worked-out, in a few cases requiring the re-trim of some TCK coaches which
would be used as TSK vehicles in these sets. Former MBS coaches would be
de-motored and now classified as trailer second brake (TSB), and presumably
modified with ETH (electric train heating) receptacles low down on the cab ends
to allow the supply of heating current from the locomotive hauling or
propelling the train. Seating totals are shown, with half sets 301 + 302
together, 303 + 304 together, similarly 305 + 306 and 307 + 308, again
presumably the sets would be semi-permanently coupled. Seating capacity of the
four trains thus formed varied slightly and sets nos.305 - 308 all included a
64 seat TSK which was a former TCK downgraded to all second and retrimmed with
the first class compartments now regarded as seating
four-aside (8 seats).
Coaches
earmarked for use in this project were all taken from the 6 PUL and
6 PAN units withdrawn at Lovers Walk in January 1964 and moved to Micheldever for storage. Overhaul and modification work on
them for conversion would have probably been done at nearby Eastleigh works had
the project continued, but no work was actually done
and some coaches were then used for other projects, several going into
6 COR units and two of the MBSs onto a temporary 8-car formation of two
4 COR units with the ex 6 PUL MBS marshalled on the outer ends. Of
those not used, they remained in store at Micheldever
until the MBS coaches were taken to Wimbledon /Selhurst for electrical
stripping prior to disposal during 1965, whilst the trailer cars were all
condemned on 21st October 1967 and sent for scrapping, mostly to
Armytage at Sheepbridge, though two were dealt with
on the SR and their underframes re-used for crane runner wagons.
