Just saw a Network Rail test train go over the bridge southbound,

incline from City Thameslink. Probably was quite a loud event if
they did, pity I missed it.
Is that the one that was in Cambridge on Monday night? Topped and tailed
by 37607 & 37069.
Probably the same one that I saw yesterday at Clapham Junction and today
at Peckham Rye.
AIUI it ran Derby RTC - St Pancras - Cricklewood - South Tottenham -
Liverpool Street - Cambridge (booked 14.47) - King's Lynn - Cambridge
(booked 17.18), and then stabled overnight. I've not seen any Tuesday
details.
With these things taking all kinds of unusual routes, how do they cope
with the need for the driver to have route knowledge? Keep changing
drivers all over the place?
