Electrification at Reading station is not new, the DC lines were energised in January 1949 linking it with London Waterloo via Wokingham and Richmond. However, electrification using AC overhead wiring is new with the march westward underway, if way behind schedule. 450127 is waiting at platform four with the 14.12 South West Trains service to Waterloo. Meanwhile, 165106 is ready to leave with the 14.04 to Redhill.
