When did that happen? I don't see 323s often but I haven't seen footage of any that suggests a traction electronics change - I'm sure given the distinctive noise the original system on the 323s produced that it would make a noticeable difference...
Never ran; presumably due to the weather.Haymarket to Leeds holbeck .

156 training continues this week, with a unit out-stationed at Holbeck for Leeds and York train crew to learn and sign (re sign).
Driver training workings? 323?

They do say diagrammed for 319 (100mph). I know diagrammed does not equal actual, but will running on WCML, with a 90mph unit in path designed for 100mph.... Does that work? If it is a 323 it is interesting to me that running is focused on Huyton - Preston, and not on the Chat Moss, where I thought they would be more likely to run the faster accelerating units. But it does seem very plausible for Driver Training as you suggest.
5Z50 is now showing as cancelled today.Diagram appears to start with 5Z50 off Allerton at 0917 with a run up to Preston.
5Z51 at 11:02 then returns it as far as St. Helens Central.
5Z52 at 11:35 Another Run up the WCML to Preston.
Lay over in Preston until the 5Z53 and 5Z54 highlighted above.
Returning to Allerton as 5Z55 from Wigan North Western at 14:28
3 x 170s have left Haymarket for Neville Hill: http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/O78060/2018/03/06/advanced
Some or all 170 475, 476, 477 & 478

5Z50 to 5Z55 are given as operative SSuX 5/3/18 to 18/5/18. They're shown on RTT as having been cancelled today, and they're not shown at all in respect of yesterday. Tomorrow is another day.All of 5Z50 to 5Z55 are now showing as cancelled.
Yep, a Flickr post I saw confirmed it as 475 & 478.Just 475 & 478 apparently.

Plus northeast drivers learning 158s too very soon.A 155 has been sent to Hull for crew training ahead of the May timetable change.
So we've got Liverpool crews learning 323s, Barrow crews learning 158s, Leeds crews learning 156s and now Hull crews learning 155s - and that's before any new classes are introduced!
Just wondering if anyone knows when this will commence, date wise?Plus northeast drivers learning 158s too very soon.
5Z50 to 5Z55 (presumed to be crew training runs on 323s, Allerton - St Helens Central -Preston) have also been cancelled 7/3/18 and 8/3/18. It looks as though they're not going to run today, either (9/3/18), but at the moment only 5Z50 is showing as cancelled.5Z50 to 5Z55 are given as operative SSuX 5/3/18 to 18/5/18.

Given that 5Z51 through 5Z55 have all been "activated" on RTT exactly 2 hrs before they're due to set off, it's highly likely that they won't be running.Posted on Tuesday of this week, 6/3/18..

Yes, I saw them as I passed Holbeck this morning.I believe 170 476/7 are at Holbeck joining 475/8 at nl.
