Good video this. The unit actually failed earlier in the day when the window 'adjuster fell off! This meant that the cab filled with rain water and needed urgent repair! With an engineering block at Sutton, this was the only route available! The replacement stock was routed from Selhurst to Epsom via Gatwick Apt and Horsham!
@alrispoli Surely could it have not run from Selhurst-Streatham Common-Tooting-Wimbledon-Raynes Park-Worcester Park-Epsom? Unless there's no bracket from Streatham Common to Tooting, which I believe there is. I just got confused as to why it would be going through Ewell West if it had gone from Selhurst to Epsom via Gatwick/Horsham, or have I got the wrong end of the stick here?

I was pending the idea of going to Raynes park, but gave up on that one.
