999605
20 February 2008 - Robert Burch
This coach was from 4-REP 2015/3015 and was one of the last 2 MK1 coaches built together with its twin 999602. The original nubmers were S62482 & S62483.
These coaches ought to be earmarked for preservation since none of the REP motor coaches were saved. These were the most powerful EMU motor coaches ever made at 1600hp each. Thus the REP's could push & pull a fully laden 12 coach train.
See the '4 rep appreciation society' for more details of these coaches.

There's a note on this one saying it was put into storage and "replaced by new UTU2 62287" in 2014. 999605 has been noted working several times in 2015 - is it still a UTU, or something else now?...
