There is a plain blue Driving Trailer at Eastern Rail Services, Great Yarmouth - observed there 16th June 2025: It looks slightly like at 4TC Driving Trailer, but it most certainly is NOT a 4TC. There is no drivers vestibule between the cab and the first passenger compartment, and half of the body side is completely plated with no windows. There are only two doors on the side visible, an inward opening door into the first passenger bay and a service door at the far (rear) end of the carriage. It is not obvious if the plated area has filled in original windows of it it has always been like that. I suspect the vehicle might be a converted BG or a Buffet car, with a cab fitted. The vehicle has various underfleet equipment and what looks very much like a fuel tank. It is completely plain blue and un-numbered, does anyone have any idea what this vehicle really is ?

Yes that is indeed it and it is actually a 4TC DT (977335 was formerly 76277), but the body and the arrangement of doors has been considerably altered. Even the headcode box and the additional lighting cluster on the front are different ! Thanks for this D6975 !
