Trivia
- This is the slowest train in all of Stepford County Railway, with a max speed of 75 MPH along with Class 465 and Class 458/5.
- Having entered service in 1979, this is the oldest train in the game.
- When introduced, this was the only train to have automatic pocket doors. The 319 and 321 are receiving it in the future while the 707 has it right now.
- In real life, these trains currently are operated by Merseyrail and were formerly operated by British Rail Southern Region, Southeastern and Silverlink.
- The Class 508 has the same motor as the Class 319 and the Class 321 on Connect.
- These trains are similar to the Class 313, 314 and 315, none of which operate in SCR at this time.
- The 508 has a twin class, the Class 507, also operated by Merseyrail - the main difference is that the 507 units have always been 3-car trains, whilst the 508 units were built as 4-car trains, until they were transferred to Merseyrail.
- Some point between its release and version 1.3.24, the price of the train was bumped from 1500 to 2000 points.
