Would anyone help me out with Diagrams or daytime services of 158's on the Wessex Main Line services, and the 3 car 375's. Much Appreciated.

Near a bunch of sheds that aren't 66s.
Hey,

There's no 375s that operate this route as majority of the route is not electrified.

If you are looking for 158s, your best bet would be to try the Cardiff to Portsmouth services as they still run the route in bulk the last time I checked. As I understand it, the 166s have taken over most of the Weymouth and Swindon services.

SWR from Salisbury to Southampton and Salisbury to Bristol operate 158s and similar 159s as well.

Surely Denyboy was asking two separate questions, as per the thread title. One about SWR 158s and the other about SE 375s.

Maybe he actually wants to see 158s in the London area?

Oh my bad, sorry about that, I must have misunderstood.

3-car 375s I wouldn't know as Southeastern is not my expertise patch.

Class 158s in the London area would only be SWR that has them and you would need to do an Oyster hop from Clapham Junction to London Waterloo. Try for any 5 or 8 coach trains which I think are easy to find in the early afternoon.

If you join the yahoo group
UK Modern EMU
you can get the SET and SWR carriage working notices (CWNs) that contain diagrams.
The SET notice will tell you every train that has a 375/3 including the diagram number.
The SWR notice will tel you every train that has SWR 158s in each service but does not tell you the diagram number although you can follow the workings. (The yahoo group deals in EMU but SWR 158/159 form one minor part of the CWN and can't be removed hence the gen is there)

The 1740 VIC-RAM also has a 375/3 making it an 11 car train (which comes in as a 7 car on the 1452 from DVP)
