Is that just so the onboard electrical systems can be tested or is it a possibility that the loco will move under its own power. |

I believe it will have a run around the yard before being approved for a main line test. --- Thanks Ant Check out my YouTube Channel updated regularly at 18:00 Most Days; https://www.youtube.com/c/apdmediatransp...nel/videos Check out my content on Flickr: https://www.flickr.com/photos/envirohunter https://www.flickr.com/photos/envirohunter/albums Updated recently with a trip down to the South Coast in 2021 & Railway Pictures from 2017. |

57312 should be collecting 319373 from Eastleigh tomorrow and dragging it forward to Wembley where the 319 will be tested up and down the southern WCML before stabling on Bletchley TMD tomorrow night. --- Thanks Ant Check out my YouTube Channel updated regularly at 18:00 Most Days; https://www.youtube.com/c/apdmediatransp...nel/videos Check out my content on Flickr: https://www.flickr.com/photos/envirohunter https://www.flickr.com/photos/envirohunter/albums Updated recently with a trip down to the South Coast in 2021 & Railway Pictures from 2017. |

This an ex-Allerton unit, do you know what’s it been tested for? |

RE: Rail Operations Group (ROG) / Europhoenix
Apparently just being tested locally now before returning to Eastleigh. . It seems odd to involve PRDC since they will be competing with Royal Mail and presumably don't have matching floor levels. |

Does anyone know if the ROG is going to operate it as an EMU or as a bi-mode similar to the 769 to make it more operationally flexible? |
