Apparently they haven't got a train to test the signalling with! Hence

There were two 345s parked in the Paddington reversing sidings one weekend
a few weeks ago, they appear to be on lines only accessible from the
tunnel. Just over an hour later, one had gone.

Meanwhile OOC depot is literally full of 345s; do none of them really have
the signalling kit needed fitted to them?


The reports suggest that not a single 345 is yet available with full
signalling capabilities.
