Class 207.

However... I'm not sure there are any of these suggestions still on the main line other than one single 4-TC, so I must ask if the offering complies with the rules of the thread?

Hi @PlatformEdgeVT
Could you please confirm that this picture is of a train that we'd find in current active service?

 

[PlatformEdgeVT]

Class 207.

Correct
I forgot about the mainline rule whilst posting, so it does not comply with the rules.

Thank you - here's the next one ( deliberately easy as I don't want a long haul for a change! ) - and a handful of these are definitely still in service... so what class of train is arcing here?
