	Southern (train operating company) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Southern is the latest name of the train operating company that took over from Connex South Central on the routes to South London, Surrey, and Sussex from Victoria and London Bridge.
		The company was originally known as South Central, but on 30 May 2004, the franchise was rebranded as Southern, in a deliberate recollection of pre-nationalisation Southern Railway, with a green roundel logo with ‘Southern’ written in yellow in a green bar.
		In early 2006, Southern became the focus of attention from cyclists' groups, as a result of their enforcement of their policy regarding carriage of cycles.

		The Greater Anglia network was awarded to a single operator as part of a drive to reduce the number of train companies operating to major termini in an effort to improve integration between services and reliability.
		The company operates services using a fleet of Class 153, 156 and 170 DMUs for the local lines, with Class 315, 317, 321 and 360 EMUs for the mainline commuter services, and Class 90 locomotives for the intercity services, supplemented with some class 47s leased in association with Cotswold Rail.
		The operator has had poor industrial relations since it started operating the franchise, with guards and revenue staff striking over the introduction of new machines, and in December 2005 drivers' union ASLEF banned rest day working, although this has since been resolved.

		The greatest benefits to a train operating company and its customers are realized when a “zero-based” plan is developed.
		A zero-based plan entails discarding the current operating plan and developing a new plan based solely on the railway’s network configuration and origin-destination traffic movements.
		Critical to the development a railway's operating plan or the evaluation of changes to a railway is a deep understanding of the traffic that must be moved by the railway.
