In combination with the release of the film "The Da Vinci Code", half set Nos. 3209 and 3210 had promotional vinyls applied. The train was named "The Da Vinci Code" at a special ceremony at Waterloo International on 16th May 2006; the film's world premiere was in Cannes the following day. The formation is seen here passing through Penge East, continent-bound. © David Glasspool
