On 10 June 1986 the image of the rail network of London and the South East of England was overhauled, officially launched by Chris Green in a blaze of publicity at Waterloo station. Stations were to be upgraded or totally rebuilt and new ones added to the network. New rolling stock was to be built to replace the tired and old trains of the South East. Network SouthEast certainly delivered on its promises during its short eight-year life.
NSE 40 & PROJECT COMMUTER EVENT AT LOCOMOTION
Paul, Ian, Louise and myself had the pleasure of hosting an NSE 40 event at Shildon on Saturday 20th June 2026.
The wonderful Chris Green was also in attendance in which he said a few words at 12 noon.
The event was a great success, it was amazing how many visitors remembered and lived through the era came to the stand to show an interest particularly as we were in the North East. It shows how peoples lives migrate to different areas.
Having Ian and Louise joining us representing the NSE Friends at the event also raised awareness for them too.
Long live the legacy of Network SouthEast !!
