710 on ELL?

On this mornings run, I think I saw a class 710 going over the
canal between Hoxton and Haggerston. (Maybe I misremember, and
it was between Cambridge Heath and London Fields).


And on this morning run, I saw a 710 departing Leytonstone High
Road towards Barking, at around 7:30ish. I think it was 3Z50,
apparently forming 2J08 on arrival. I've not noticed a
fanfair of 'new trains in service'... so can anyone confirm?

Perhaps still driver training runs?

Maybe. Hope not. The info on Open Train times has either changed
now I'm at home, or my quick glance at work was wrong.

The times in the NRTT haven't changed at all apart from the odd minute
or two. It is as if the half-hourly emergency timetable never happened.
Does that mean normal frequency with (some) new trains will be in
operation by 20th May?

The 710s can now be seen frequently on GOBLIN but they are
not carrying fare-paying passengers.


All times are GMT. The time now is 04:34 AM.
