    As this is now a Network rail operated unit for test purposes, is it nominally based at Derby RTC on paper at least? Assume it operates mainly out of Willesden though. Can anyone confirm.

    Hertford North on the Hertford 'loop' will have a 5 mile section for testing and this unit not expected to stray far from the carriage sidings at that station and test track when testing commences.

    Can anyone confirm the rest of the coach numbers in this unit.

    I suspect they are DMSO 62549, PTSO 71233, BDMSO 62613.(Set previously numbered 313021).

    Thank you all.

    Yes those numbers correct ex 313 121 (Silverlink) originally 313 021 before. Unit last seen lurking inside the LOROL Willesden depot.

  • 31 July 2015 - Greg Hartle

    Noted parked at the north end depot sidings, adjacent to and clearly visible from the mainline.

    This along with 71233 & 62613 (set 313121) were offerred for sale by Network Rail in January 2023. Seemingly it was then located at the Asfordby test tract in Leicestershire. Presumably somebody bought it or is it still there?

    Post here shows this unit on the A1 near Blyth in Nottinghamshire, heading north.

    All 3 vehicles last reported at the Scottish Borders - which is undoubtedly the furthest north a class 313 has ever been?
