Farewell 508s - The Final Months - Southeastern Livery

208 in southeastern livery is pictured at Redhill on 22nd September 2005

508208 was the first unit to gain Southeastern livery and it did so well ahead on the remainder of the fleet. It therefore had the yellow doors originally part of this livery.

Southeastern thankfully later refined its livery with less "in-your-face" blue doors. 508203 is pictured, with a very clean white roof, at Wateringbury on 30th September 2007.
