Only a subset of the 350/1s have been made ready and depot tested
for DC use, about 15 AIUI, out of the 30 in total. The 50% that do
not have the OK to work on DC wouldn't need a significant amount of
work to do so. However the whole sub class (350/1) is type cleared
for DC running, the use by SN only required route clearance.

Thanks for clarifying that.

For the 350/2s DC use would not be possible without significant
additional equipment being added.

What equipment? Just shoegear and DC fuses/circuit breakers etc, surely?
