Brighton 6 Car Unit Withdrawal Dates

[Right Away]

I would be interested to know the dates of withdrawal of the individual Brighton 6 car express units (except 3032).

That is, whilst in service as 6PUL/6PAN units and before any reforming into 6COR(N), 4PUL etc.

 

My last recollection of travelling in one of these units was in the summer of either '65 or '66 on a delayed 16.00 Victoria to Brighton non-stop with No 3029. (How do I remember this? I was an electrical apprentice at that time and 3/.029 was an imperial size of cable,)

The PAN was the rear unit of a 10 car formation with a 4COR leading; the motorman was my father. He admitted afterwards of being faintly amused as waiting passengers "took cover" on some station platforms, doubtlessly perturbed by the rapidly oscillating front gangway connection of the Nelson as the ensemble passed through at speed. Travelling in the rear motor coach of the pantry unit, I can confirm the ride was right up to expectations - exhilarating!

 

Any help with the dates is greatly appreciated.
