As is now the norm the Bombardier built Class 720s destined for use with Greater Anglia are massively delayed for a whole host of reasons. The COVID-19 pandemic has slowed things even further but the units are now on mileage accumulation runs prior to heading to Essex and the northeast London area. On the second day of these runs, 720538 and 720537 head past Roade as the 12.38 Derby to Wolverton Works 5Q28. This short trip is part of a much longer round trip that involves going to Crewe and further south towards London. I think that these units look smart but very similar to so many others that have entered service or are about to, making them a little anonymous.
