Services on the London Tilbury and Southend Railway from the 1960's to the early 1990's were handled mainly by class 302 Electric Multiple Units. I believe that 244 was unique in having this type of cab - picking up a spare car from another class of EMU following an accident. The others had flat fronts. Behind the unit can be seen a train of Hammersmith and City stock waiting in the bay platform.
