Golding, B A Pictorial Record of Southern Electric Units Noodle Books 2009 978 1 906419 34 9
So far as the SECR is concerned, included as an awful warning. This book pretends to include plans of SR EMUs converted from SER steam stock. But the author has simply presented a generic impression, not in fact correct for any units, and ignoring the fact that there were several different variants of each vehicle-type. The panelling is drawn incorrectly, looking more like LSWR than the SER “Wolverton” style. On the plus side, the commode handles look OK, and there are photographs although none of great novelty or interest.
Brown, D Southern Electric, Vol 1, Development of the London suburban network and its trains Capital Transport 2009 9781854143303
In contrast to Golding, this is an excellent book, comprising detailed and comprehensive text as well as photographs, and covering the SECR electrification proposals as well as SR electrification of ex-SECR lines and giving great detail of conversion of SER steam stock to EMUs
