After over 2 years out of service 334017 was returned to ScotRail today after being repaired by Brodie Engineering in Kilmarnock. In a surprise twist Freightliner were given the task of moving the 'Juniper' unit back to Shields depot and 66623 was turned out for it - it's seen here at North Woodhill just north of Kilmarnock with 5Q34.
334017 was involved in a collision with cattle near Uphall in May 2018. It was moved to Polmadie for assessment on 11/06/2018 and the decision was made to repair the unit. Brodie Engineering was tasked with the repair and it was moved from Polmadie to their depot on 01/06/2019.
The wagons used in this move are those that were originally modified for delivering Caledonian Sleeper's Mk.5 coaching stock. The use of them on this move shows that they're evidently multi-purpose, so could we start to see more FL operated stock moves in the future?
