The 13.59 stopper Portsmouth and Southsea to Littlehampton train arrives

at Emsworth station worked by 313213. These veteran units have been in operation on this route and a number of others for three years now but their introduction was not without issues. The main criticism was that they were considerably older than the Class 377 Electrostars being replaced and thus lacked many more modern and to-be-expected features such as air conditioning. This will surely be their final use before withdrawal comes as they approach their fortieth year.
