A Class 313 electric unit stops at Kensington Olympia. Originally with British Railways, the units of this type operating on North London Line and associated services became part of the Silverlink fleet following privatisation. Silverlink services were taken over by London Overground in 2007 as part of, the then Mayor of London, Ken Livingstone's plans to improve services for the customers. The white stickyback plastic signs on the sides give away the sudden nature of this change - they were applied over the Silverlink name without any changes to the livery. New units were ordered to replace the ageing 313's around that time and these finally started to be delivered under a new Mayor, Boris Johnson, in 2009. Please see Image for an example. The change out of the types is ongoing and on the day this photo was taken both were in service on the route. The 313's are reportedly destined for further service on the south coast Coastway routes.
