450's to to Chessington?The May 2022 LTP diagrams have no 707s (or 701s) in. I assume 707 diagrams will be added in on an STP basis until they go in August. But it suggests that SWR have planned on the basis of the remaining 707s being transferred before the 701s starting entering service. The loss of 707s is filled in for by further movement of 450s from mainline to suburban work. There is a fair amount of 450s booked on Chessington/ Guildford via Cobham/ Woking diagrams.
shows they have had far too many 450's for the out suburban work so about time they sweated the assets this operator is taking more tax payers support than any other one.
