ECML, very interesting, I don't think 87s have ever operated on the ECML. Hope it turns out to be true, and is more succesful than DRS's last attempt at using 87s.

They did (very) occasionally with InterCity in the early 1990s.

Thinking about it, I did read it in RAIL. That could be the problem.

I know there was an 87 on the ECML last year or the time before, but I dont believe there were any passengers with it

87's have even operated on the Midland Main Line, up to Bedford, attach a 47, then up to Nuneaton via Market Harborough and Wigston South Chord.
