I believe NR are deploying two more 97 locos for Cambrian workings but this time those little genius's from Hitachi are fitting the ERTMS equipment. Could this lead to a portable version becoming available sometime soon?

There is some night time testing taking place at the weekend but I believe that is for a software update.

I'd hope that testing of different supplier equipment does take place; it would be preferable to have multiple proven and qualified providers.
