802202 ran empty from Edge Hill to York yesterday in the path of the 06.25 Liverpool-Newcastle, alledgedly cancelled no stock, while its return was shown cancelled due to an operating incident and also had an STP ECS in its path although that didn't run.

9M04/9E09 06.03 x Newcastle and 09.25 back were worked by 802201 this morning - filmed arriving York in electric mode and presumably did so between Victoria and Lime St.

next leg of diagram was a 185, no idea if that was planned or crewe shortages which have caused both mk.5 sets to retire to Longsight early

The 802 was indeed planned to do just the one round trip. 68s have been terminating randomly of late down to both crew problems and minor faults.
