Saw a 700 on the GN for the first time this evening, north of
Finsbury Park.

First visit to the new Hornsey depot?

I presume it must have came from Three Bridges via the WLL/NLL then
Camden Road Incline to the ECML.


That was our guess as we didn't think that the Canal Tunnel route
is open yet.


It's not open for public trains, as I don't think the signalling has been
implemented. But the track may all be in place and connected by now, so
ECS movements may now be possible, possibly during an overnight
possession.


Signalling has been commissioned I'm told. AIUI there is still an OLE issue
preventing use for ECS moves.

Not even (diesel) loco-hauled?
