  • Since Thursday of last week 47790 and 47805 had* been operating in multiple in top and tailed formation using through wiring of the stock which was being tested prior to the takeover by 37s on these workings - which is expected towards the end of June. As it was successful it was expected that the locos would operate in multiple on these workings until replaced. However 47790 was replaced after an issue this morning, 47813 being the replacement, the train is currently operating in normal hauled mode.
