47739, 360113 & 47727, 11.52 Ilford EMUD-Northampton EMD (5Q60, 13L), site of Roade station In a repeat operation, another former Greater Anglia Class 360 is dragged from Ilford to Northampton's Siemen's facility for modification enabling it to operate at up to one hundred and ten miles per hour. This work, that I suspect is largely software related, means that it is one of the units targeted to operate on the yet to be energised and tested MML between St. Pancras and Corby. At the site of Roade's former station, 47739 leads the train at a very slow speed with 47727 'Edinburgh Castle/Caisteal Dhun Eideann' at the rear. In common with the other times that this operation has taken place, the train is often fairly early prompting me to get out to my chosen spot only for control to hold it to its booked time by sidelining it at Bletchley and then holding it at Milton Keynes leading to a frustrating wait for me!
