I'll keep everyone updated as I'll be heading out and having a see for myself what GNE are using. 7110 from Deptford has also been out today from the first journey on the rail replacement.

Yes, the benefit for you lot with the coaches being fitted with ticket machines now. We need to be logged in so SDC can contact us if needed. Same was true last few replacements too I believe.
