The 310s also went to the Eastern where they joined the similar-

The last slam door stock at East Ham was a few class 312s. I even have
a picture somewhere. Oh yes,

.
I expect that whichever 312/310 units were most recently overhauled
would have got kept on regardless of uniformity, to cover any
shortages. A bit like how a hotchpotch of suburban slam-door units
ended up on the south eastern from across the three divisions.
Uh-oh. When that photo was taken (in 2002) the 310s had all been withdrawn.
