In the early evening dusk, 508303 is seen departing Willesden Junction low level on the 16.17 London Euston - Watford Junction. Thankfully, a better attempt at filming this unit, once 508142 on Merseyside, than at North Wembley earlier.

  • does anyone know the difference between a class 313 and a class 508

  • Yep. Class 313s are dual voltage, meaning they can work from both AC overhead and DC third rail, while the 508s can work off only DC third rail. Therefore, the 508s can only be used on the London Euston - Watford Junction line because it is the only completely third rail route on London Overground. Hope that helps!

  • nice video!

  • Cheers matey!

  • Great Video, Does Willesden Junction Station have ticket barriers?

  • Cheers! I'm fairly sure it does, although I didn't actually go in or out of the station itself.

  • If the ELL opened 1 or 2 years earlier, the 508's could've worked on it. But then it opened in 2010, when the 378's were the main stock on LO.

  • Willesden does have ticket barriers, i was there yesterday

  • no.. Willesdon does not have ticket barriers... I should know , because

  • Wilsdern junction has one of the worst gaps! Queens park has one of the best gaps, well for the bakerloo line anyway.

  • ok thanks a lot mate

  • could you do any videos at Carpenders Park of the DC trains and passing trains. I sometimes use Carpenders Park but mainly Watford Junction.

  • The answer is yes...Willesden does have ticket barriers.

    Next time your out and about, give us a wave and I might mistake you for P-way and blow up on approach :) might have been me on one of those DC's, I seem to spend more time on those than on the High-Level
