You Don’t Get Many Eleven Coach Trains

Apart from some Class 390 trains and perhaps a few others, that were built that way, eleven coach trains are fairly unusual in the UK.

So I was surprised to see this image of the 10:00 train from Liverpool Street to Norwich.

Note.

1. I wrote about travelling in a pair of four-car Class 755 trains in A Pair Of Class 755 Trains At Liverpool Street Station.
2. The normal trains on this route are twelve-car Class 745 trains, so they should fit all the stations.
3. Both trains are 100 mph trains and Liverpool Street and Norwich is fully electrified, so this service will be zero-carbon.

It would appear that somebody is up to something.
