On the 23rd June 1988 Class 411 No. 1554 is seen leading two unidentified sister units into Margate Station with a London Victoria to Ramsgate service. All 3 units are in the short lived Jaffa Cake, two-tone brown with orange stripe, livery. No. 1554 had been introduced into service as 4-CEP No. 7143 in March 1959 and 3 of it's vehicles were scrapped at Immingham Docks during April 2003. The remaining vehicle, TS No. 70292 the second coach of the unit, still survives and has recently arrived at Grantown-on-Spey in the Scottish Highlands from long tern storage at Long Marston.
