British Rail Class 170 'Doodlebug' 3 car Diesel Multiple Unit (DMU) 170208 working the 1P57 17:30 (19:05 18L at CHM) Abellio Greater Anglia Norwich- London Liverpool Street service train southbound at Generals Lane overbridge on the Great Eastern Main Line near Boreham in Essex (UK).
Who knows why a 3 car diesel multiple unit was operating this service. This should be a Class 90 locomotive hauled 8 carriage train.
Might be linked to this train's 18 minute delay while the whole GEML was subject to heat related cancellations and speed restrictions during this day.
Note 'The Brecks' vinyl wrap livery and the train is approaching a double yellow (preliminary caution) signal aspect.
The double yellow warns the driver that the following signal may be at single yellow (caution) and the signal after that may be at red (stop, danger).

Brand newish British Rail Class 755 3 car diesel electric Bi-Mode Multiple Unit (BMU) 755337 as operated by Greater Anglia at Ipswich Station in the County of Suffolk (UK).
The Class 755 BMU's were a direct replacement from 2019 for the ancient Class 156 'Sprinter' DMU trains that operated on rural Greater Anglia secondary lines.
755337 was built for Greater Anglia 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.
The Class 755 bi-mode units should not be confused with the almost identical looking Stadler Rail 'FLIRT' Class 745 Electric (only) Multiple Units which are also operated by Greater Anglia.
