Hmmm, I just happen to have a copy of Rail in front of me, and according to their 66 feature, the highest 66/4 is 434 belonging to DRS, and the highest 66/3 is 305 belonging to Fastline.

in a gawdy livery I don't recognise
Yep, that sounds like the GBRf, (they have some strange livery variations for their customers) since they're doing most of the work out Tonbridge yard nowadays. Was there any pink in the colour scheme ? It's a strange requirement of the First Group.

And let this be a lesson to you - next time take yer camera and binoculars !!!

HTH,
Foggy
