These EMU's are locally known by railfans as 'Darth Vaders' can see why too.
Train London - Gatwick Airport
The non-stop trip from Gatwick is almost over on this journey.
This is the old fashioned Gatwick Express, a long term shortage of Class 460 units means this train is still used on one roster.
Horley station is in the background as the 1500 from Victoria approaches its destination. A Brighton to London fast service can be seen passing by.
460004 comes speeding around the curve through one of Clapham Junction's 15 platforms.
The Gatwick Express...to Victoria for 11 pounds, or you can take a local train for 8!
