Or it could be driver training for Virgin's Blockbuster (IIRC) service.

Possibly, but why use a HST for that?


Because there's one spare at Old Oak?

The blockbusters are 221s, so it's not
traction, and Chiltern have a route learning bubble car (which has been
uised for route learning for the blockbuster).


I wasn't aware of that. Thanks for that info.
