Ha ha, no worries mate, reading back I replied to the wrong person perhaps, I assumed it was all related to the spot the difference, was calling myself a dope. Now I see it. Ha ha.I just read the post again. Yes I see now! Sorry!

Spot the difference on the two Driving Trailers (first photo)? It took me ages but once you see it it is rather obvious!
Sorry I meant for other classes of train, given the lengths gone to with these trains to have special training for guards how can other trains have no guards at all?
I don't want to start a debate about no guards just wanted to know what the official justification is.
Has testing been happening at night do we know?
All seems very quite.
Be very lucky if any of these Mk5a sets are in passenger service from December!
TPE should get their hands on a train next month. Until then it’s all CAF / Freighliner.
Current plan is still 2 sets in service from Sun 9 Dec.

What's happening with the 185s that these are replacing?Current plan is still 2 sets in service from Sun 9 Dec
What set was this? I presume it's one that's been on test before.Cancelled Crewe due to dragging brakes at Winsford. Had to do 20mph to clear the line.

But yes once fault free running starts any fault rests the clockDo these faults keep resetting the fault-free running totals?

Ahh yes the good old, 'when is a fault not a fault' commissioning dilema.Not all faults would reset, certain ones would reset only.
I've heard indirectly that these sets will not be in use until May 2019 now. Anyone know more?Dragging brakes (again) an issue on 5K99 today.

Was it the same set that had this problem before?

If it comes to it, there'll be a token Piccadilly to Airport service at 0400 on December 31st.It’s a franchise commitment to be in traffic before the end of the year, so I’d expect fines to be dished out if that deadline slips.
Ignore the rumour mill please. I can assure you that you'll see these in service during 2018, I just can't say exactly when.I've heard indirectly that these sets will not be in use until May 2019 now. Anyone know more?
