One diagram is booked a 170 on a hire agreement.
Thank you for your reply. I presumed that must be the case.
Class 68 and Mark 5 Set working into Liverpool tonight, testing platform stops at Lea Green, Newton-le-Willows and Manchester Victoria.
Mark 5A Set 9 has been passed out ready for operations, crew training should begin shortly and this set should be ready for the May timetable change.

I'm not sure, I can see them being phased in one by one and it might not be a May start if full crew training isn't complete. I believe Set 6 is almost ready and this should join forces with Set 9 into passenger service no later than end of July but the others are quite a way off as of yet.

About November last year.
350403 is now at Wolverton and has been de-branded.
