That was the only one I could think of off the top of my head ( other than IoW ), but there's Thameslink now which I guess has some 3rd rail(?). There was also something along the lines of Southern Branchline which I can't seem to find anymore.
My posts are my opinion, and should be read as such.

Or if you can wait, there is the forthcoming Portsmouth Harbour to Woking route from RSC, due out springtime.

I think he is extending that one towards brighton, although at the moment I think it only covers London Bridge - Farringdon on the 3rd rail partsKariban wrote:That was the only one I could think of off the top of my head ( other than IoW ), but there's Thameslink now which I guess has some 3rd rail(?).

Yes, the ThamesLink is what I have been using to trundle up and down between Farringdon and London Bridge in a 2HAP consist: Short but satisfying, albeit for some of the severe gradient changes. The approach to LB where the Cannon Street section joins is very nice.
