On 24 October 2023, 444016 and 444039 raced westwards with 5W71, a 15:21 Surbiton to Southampton ECS, running in place of 1W71 from Waterloo. An incident between Surbiton and Clapham Junction had closed all lines, preventing the units from reaching Waterloo on their previous working and resulted in them being turned round at Surbiton and sent back westwards.
