This special train will run a one off commemorative service across some of the oldest stations on the Southeastern network.

Celebrate 40 years of Network SouthEast with a special commemorative rail tour aboard Southeastern's uniquely restored Networker train in the iconic Network SouthEast livery.

Beginning and ending at London Victoria, this one-off journey will travel across both Metro and Mainline routes to Ramsgate and Dover, passing some of the oldest stations on the Southeastern Railway network.

Southeastern Railway has created a one-of-a-kind Networker train in the iconic Network SouthEast livery, a nostalgic tribute brought to life in partnership with Angel Trains, Wabtec, Network SouthEast Friends and Network Rail.

This special train, Unit 465908, proudly bears the name 'Chris Green', honouring one of the railway's most visionary leaders. It was officially unveiled at a special ceremony at Charing Cross in spring 2025, and now it's your chance to experience it for yourself.

On 12 September 2026, this unique four-hour journey will cover a wide sweep of the Metro and Mainline network, celebrating the legacy of Network SouthEast and the people who made it such an iconic part of Britain's railway history.

Tickets are extremely limited, with just 250 seats available.

The train will depart London Victoria at 10.23 and arrive back at London Victoria 14.45.

Don't miss your chance to be part of this unique railway celebration. Secure your seat aboard this iconic service and enjoy a memorable journey through railway history.

Southeastern Railway will not make any profit from ticket sales. All proceeds will go towards covering event costs, with any remaining funds donated to five charities: Alzheimer's Research UK, Railway Benefit Fund, Railway Children, Railway Mission and the Transport Benevolent Fund CIO.
