Evening all, but of an unusual one here. Was traveling on 2D56 from Bishop Auckland earlier on, and when between Heighington and North Road there is a small electrified line, presumably where Hitachi's Newton Aycliffe plant test trains. Anyway, there was an Avanti West Coast 805/807 sat stationary on there when we went past at around 17:52, was wondering if anyone could help identify what unit this is?

Thanks massively in advance ;)

To maybe offer a bit of help, I think it may have been an 807 because of the length of the train, pretty sure it was more than 5 carriages. But then again, it was viewed from a passing train, so just looked like a bit of a blur to be honest! So it may have been an 805, but am 99% sure it was an 807

Today's 5X83 (pathed as "departmental") Paddington to Eastleigh Works. Photo attached, in typical summer gloom at Winchester.
Does any reader know which GWR IET this was; and the purpose of this particular run?
Many thanks.

Legend - thank you. Do you know the purpose of that Class 5 path to Eastleigh Works? I've not noticed a return path yet.
It’s for the work on the IET ‘cracking’ issues.

Morning,

Unfortunately I don’t have the facility to do this for locos. I can only check either a specific loco or a specific service.
