Default Class 465s to Farringdon?

The only d.c. train ever to get as far as Farringdon (AFAIK) was a
test train run one Sunday as part of the commissioning of the Snow
Hill route. I have slides of the event. It must have thrown up some
snags - the actual start of through running was about 3 months later.


Not necessarily... they would hardly run the test train one day before the
timetabled start of through running.
