Porterbrook leasing 799001

[pieguyrob]

My question is this, which 319 is 799001, and what is its time scale to be in use?
I know it is not the hydrogen flex unit as that is 319454 in a special advertising livery based on silver and purple, with no yellow front.
This unit has a yellow front warning panel.

Can anybody elaborate, please?

799001 (ex 319001) is the HydroFlex unit.

319454 is Porterbrook's Innovation Train.

Ah, ok. Its in a silver outside, with a green middle.

I got the adverts on the side mixed up. Thank you for clearing that.
Can't get used to the non yellow fronts....

I doubt it'll ever have that green front in practice, it's likely to stay yellow.

Are there any pics of this pair floating around?

 

[pieguyrob]

I do have, but I am not allowed to post them on the internet. They were at Long Marston yesterday, but, the stipulation of the tour around Long Marston is no sharing photos. They were getting ready for the RailLive event, so should be in a magazine at the end of the month.
