805 009 was at Euston at around midday today ( well.. technically yesterday now... Monday 15th )...
...in platform 10.

You are of course entitled to you view, even if it is flawed.You are mistaking what I am classing as delivered.
I, and many others class a delivery move as a unit being delivered and accepted by the customer.
So as I stated earlier the move today was not a delivery move, mearly a positioning move from the factory to Oxley on behalf of Hitachi so they can continue testing.
As for livery, again you are mistaken. Units leaving Hitachi now for delivery to Avanti, depart with livery applied after doing the relevant mileage acceptance overnight on the ECML.
I won’t comment any further on it, as this could go round and round in circles.

Are you wondering about tests or passenger service?When will the 805's be running on the Holyheads? TIA
It's shown on Wikipedia for both classes.Can anyone advise how many Standard and First Class seats are on these 5 and 7 car sets?
Will the coach numbering correspond to Voyagers and presumably there is no capacity on board for Standard Premium given Limited First capacity?
And class 221s have the same number of vehicles but substantially less seats.805 301 seats (25 first-class, 276 standard)
807 453 seats (49 first-class, 404 standard)
Well given XC are promised the 221's the quicker the better otherwise its going to get cosy during the summer on XC.When will the 805's be running on the Holyheads? TIA

No, first class in end carriage, then remaining standard.Will these have standard premium or not?
No standard premium. Only standard and first.Will these have standard premium or not?
More than just one for 807s, surely?No, first class in end carriage, then remaining standard.
My bad, half of one carriage, then the end carriage with the kitchen/galleyMore than just one for 807s, surely?
They've got a larger galley than the 805s too, so that they can give the Pendolino catering offer.My bad, half of one carriage, then the end carriage with the kitchen/galley
One of them was 805007.Asked this on the TOPS requests earlier, but does anyone know which 805s were the double operating 5Q61 1231 Preston to Stoke-on-Trent.
Plain white livery, unfortunately the numbers were too small (And obscured by plants) for me to see.
