Description

Thirty-two of these 4-car units were built for services on the Great Eastern, Liverpool Street-Shenfield-Southend Victoria. The units were constructed to a similar design to the third-rail EPB units introduced by the Southern Region a few years earlier. However there were several differences, most notably a slightly different front cab (with narrower cab windows) and also a different seating arrangement. Great Eastern may refer to: The Great Eastern, a steam ship built by Isambard Kingdom Brunel in 1858. ...

British Rail Class 415 was a suburban train commissioned by British Rail in England. ...

The AM7 units were constructed to operate off the 1500 V DC overhead system used on Eastern Region suburban lines. However, in the late 1950s and early 1960s, these lines were converted to the 6.25 kV / 25 kV AC overhead system, which was adopted as standard, and coincided with the introduction of new AM2 units. Therefore, from 1960-1962 the entire AM7 fleet was extensively rebuilt at Eastleigh Works to allow units to operate off the new voltage system. 1950 (MCML) was a common year starting on Sunday (link will take you to calendar). ... 1960 (MCMLX) was a leap year starting on Friday (the link is to a full 1960 calendar). ...

All units were formed of four-cars. When originally built, units were numbered in the range 01s-32s, and were composed of two outer driving trailers, an intermediate trailer composite (i.e. with some first-class seating), and an intermediate motor brake. When the units were converted from DC to AC in 1960, they were extensively rebuilt. The work including moving the guard's compartment from the motor coach to one of the driving trailers. At the same time, units were renumbered into the range 101-132. 1960 (MCMLX) was a leap year starting on Friday (the link is to a full 1960 calendar). ...

From 1983-1984 the fleet was refurbished. Work involved replacing all compartments with open saloons, and the fitting of gangways between vehicles within a unit. The first-class seating was also moved from the trailer to the non-brake driving trailer. During this period, units were renumbered 307101-307132. 1983 (MCMLXXXIII) was a common year starting on Saturday of the Gregorian calendar. ... 1984 (MCMLXXXIV) was a leap year starting on Sunday of the Gregorian calendar. ...

Operations

When new, these units were used on the newly electrified Great Eastern, Liverpool Street-Shenfield-Southend Victoria line, on the Southend semi-fast services. In 1960 this line were re-electrified from 1500v DC to 25kV AC overhead, neccessitating the rebuild of the fleet.

Following refurbishment in 1983, the fleet saw continued use on both the LTS and Great Eastern routes. From 1986, a few units were repainted in the bold new Network SouthEast (NSE) livery. By 1990, however, the class had been displaced from the LTS route by Class 310 units, themselves cascaded from the West Coast Main Line following introduction of new Class 321/4 units, supplemented temporarily by ex-"Bed-Pan" Class 317 units. the units did not last much longer on the Great Eastern route, following introduction of new Class 321/3 and cascaded Class 312 units. 1983 (MCMLXXXIII) was a common year starting on Saturday of the Gregorian calendar. ... 1986 (MCMLXXXVI) was a common year starting on Wednesday of the Gregorian calendar. ...

By 1991, all units had been withdrawn from NSE services. However, five units, nos. 307105/111/120/122/130, were given a reprieve, and were overhauled at Doncaster Works, for use on the newly electrified Leeds-Doncaster line. They received the attractive West Yorkshire Metro maroon livery. The use of these units was intended as a stop-gap until three new dedicated Class 321/9 units entered service.

This plan was dropped in favour of the new-build Class 325 units. However, many of the driving trailer vehicles were eventually rebuilt as Propelling Control Vehicles (see below). The redundant intermediate trailers and motor vehicles were eventually scrapped. Class 300 was allocated to a proposed fleet of parcels-carrying Electric multiple units, which were to be converted from former Class 307 units. ...

Postal Conversions

In the early 1990s, the British Rail parcels sector Rail Express Systems identified the need for driving trailers to operate in push-pull mode with a locomotive. This would remove the time consuming process of changing the locomotive to other end of the train to allow it to leave a terminus. These new vehicles were called Propelling Control Vehicles (PCVs), since it was envisaged that they would only be used to propel a train into or out of a terminus, and not used at high-speed or over long distances.
