Delays in the delivery of class 385s meant that the Edinburgh - Glasgow service was covered by a mix of class 380s and 365s. On 10 August 2018, 380108 arrives at Linlithgow on the 1315 from Edinburgh.
British Rail Class 745 25kV 12 car Electric Multiple Unit (EMU) 745008 working the 1P31 11:00 (12:18 RT) Norwich- London Liverpool Street 'Greater Anglia' service train southbound at Chelmsford Station on the Great Eastern Main Line in the County of Essex (UK).
The Class 745 EMU's were a direct replacement in early 2020 for the ageing 30 year old plus Class 90 electric locomotives and their slam door British Rail Mk3b coaches which previously worked the Norwich- London Liverpool Street express services.
745008 was built by Stadler Rail at their facility in Bussnang Switzerland as one of the Stadler 'FLIRT' (Fast Light Intercity and Regional Train) modular family of trainsets.
Note the Dellner type coupling system in the big ugly hole at the front of the trains. The Dellner coupling is a version of the Scharfenberg coupler which connects pneumatics and electronics at the same point of contact.
Greater Anglia had an option to have a cover fitted in these coupling holes by Stadler but declined for cost and ease of maintenance reasons.
