Yes it went to Portsmouth and Folkestone at least


hence on her tours on the Southern she operated
coupled to some older Southern Units which provided the air for
braking .


Not always.

I think it was only open day shuttles where it worked like that - I'd
possibly go as far so say there were more tours in LH form than with
other EMU.

The tours I cited used SR Mk.1 AB stock - well at least the Portsmouth
one did as I was one it, and here a pic
