    Direct Rail Services Ltd Passenger Trains Test Runs (28th- 30th December 2011)

    Keep in mind that this is more likely to be 47s than 37s. If 37s are used then they require either 37409 or 37423 (at least until they overhaul more 37/4s) as those are the only ones which have train supply fitted.

    It's probably going to end up sticking around, they already have the allowed 53 390s in operation yet the mk3 rake is still in regular service both covering for pendolinos and running charters.
