Two Avanti Class 805 Hitachi units made a first test run in multiple, from Oxley to Glasgow Central, on 17th May 2023. A previous test of multiple working on 3rd May had to be cancelled due to a unit failing at Crewe. 805001 and 003 are seen approaching Woodacre on the northbound run, having just passed 45596 'Bahamas' which was heading to Southall E+C.
