What appears to be a perfectly normal Class 350 working passes through Roade on a foggy and cold Saturday morning between Christmas and New Year; however, everything is not as it seems. Composed entirely of Class 350/2 units the 11.09 Northampton to Wembley Yard running as 5A11 is formed by 350240, 350253 and 350251. The units have had all of their vinyl branding removed suggesting that this tranche is heading off lease for storage awaiting further developments with Northern possibly interested in them.
