 GWR's 800002 passes Norton Junction signal box to the southeast of Worcester working the 2E55 09.38 Bristol to Worcester Foregate Street 'local' service. This may seem a rather mundane working for an IET but I suspect it acts as a positioning move and makes sense that it operates as a service train rather than just an empty stock run. Personally, if I was making this journey I would probably prefer a Class 165 (or the like) rather than be forced to sit on the ironing boards that profess to be seats on the Class 80os
