Prototype Information
The ‘Javelin’ is part of the Hitachi AT300 family of dual voltage trains used for high-speed commuter services along HS1 between London St Pancras and Ashford and other key routes under the Southeastern franchise. Twenty-nine six-car sets were delivered from Hitachi’s Kasado Works in Japan between 2007 and 2009.
Running on the 750v DC third-rail supply, they can attain speeds of up to 100mph (160km/h), and on 25kV AC power overhead lines, 140mph (225km/h). Set 395015 has received special vinyl coverings to mark the 200th anniversary of the first passenger train to be hauled on a public railway.
