Avanti West Coast 807002 has overnight moved from Oxley to Darlington, and this morning will be dragged from Darlington to Merchant Park.

Unsure why this live has occurred, could be Mods or could be for crack repairs.

That's the original unit (the first build one which ran around in White for ages?) - I wonder if that's relevant?

There was a second move on Sunday night/Monday morning (5Q80) dragged to Merchants Park on Monday morning by 66775 (5Q81)

Any I/D of the unit would be appreciated

Not see anything about an id anywhere and the unit has been placed straight inside at merchant Park so isn't visible

Thanks for the confirmation.

Anyone know what work is being carried out on these units whilst at Merchants Park
I'd love to know what work is undertaken as 008 is booked to return to Oxley tomorrow evening.
