Yep! Class 466s (and Class 465/9s) Have Met-Cam Motors which are the same as the old Great Northern Class 365s. Quite miss the 365s as really did like them just never got to catch one.
I was even surprised too. Barely any 466s either. I suppose thats what it'll be like soon if SE decide that their Met Cams have had their time now. As to be honest the BRELS (465/0/1) seem to have more Motor failures/cut-outs more than Met-Cams which make the journey late and longer and uncomfortable. Bare in mind anyway I think this was a Saturday I went spotting here as I think Met Cams normally do Weekdays might be wrong.
That Southeastern 466014 as it leaves the station, It's making the sound of the old classic train the Grate Northern 365 😍

Wow, not a single Met-Cam. Surprising! I see loads down at Gravesend

@@NotDavidTrains Yep, the BRELS have more reliability issues than Met-Cams.
There are def still many Met-Cams around though
