The Class 508 is one of the most slowest trains in all of Stepford County Railway, with a max speed of 75 MPH along with Class 465 and Class 458/5.
In real life, these trains currently are operated by Merseyrail and were formerly operated by British Rail Southern Region, Southeastern and Silverlink.
