The future is here and on-test at Essendine! 800201 is

presently un-branded and operating a test run as the 09.41 Peterborough to Doncaster. This day marked the press launch of the class 800 Azumas with a return King's Cross to Leeds service carrying invited guests and dignitaries to experience the new train. Unlike the majority of other services that were operating late due to issues in the Stevenage area, this 'special' arrived on-time; strange!
