The British Rail Class 414 (or 2-HAP) electric multiple units were built between 1956 and 1963. They formed part of the Southern Regions express fleet and were fitted with the standard 90mph express gear ratio for such units. This was primarily because a number of their duties involved working in multiple with the 4-CEP Express fleet also of 90mph maximum speed. Three batches (209 units) were built.
