The now withdrawn of the two 1986 3ft. gauge Southend Pier Railway trains, 'Sir John Betjeman', was broken up but this driving car is on display at Pier Head station. Another part of this train stands further back along the pier, providing a place for visitors to sit while enjoying refreshments. The other 1986 train, 'Sir William Heygate' currently remains operational and provided the service on Bank Holiday Monday, 29th August 2022.
