Possibly because of the proposed changes to the Newcastle to Edinburgh route in May 2022, TPE Class 802 Hybrids worked a Craigentinny - Preston - Glasgow - Preston - Craigentinny test/training diagram from 16th to 19th August 2021 (Cancelled on 20th). 802218, one of several used, is seen at Woodacre on the leg from Glasgow on the Tuesday working. This routed through the platform lines at Lancaster without stopping. The train was diagrammed as a DMU despite the routes being entirely electrified.
