Inter regional loco hauled services from Brighton 1993.

The writing had been on the wall for some years, the Dover service was finally withdrawn apart from a 4 week spell on Summer Saturdays. This train was also now routed via the West Coast mainline.

Almost no change on the Brighton services apart from the Sunday train from Scotland which now started from Glasgow Central instead of Edinburgh. The Summer Saturday services continued to run to and from Eastbourne.

Once again during the summer the Brighton services ran via Redhill and Guildford.

Class 47/8 operation continued on services south of New Street with AC electric haulage north of.

Did the Saturdays train to Dover have a loco change at Mitre Bridge or was it Diesel hauled throughout? If you can assist please let me know.
