These going to be swapping routes with the Class 185s. These are normally found on the Scarborough services but due to complaints from the residents of Scarborough, the 185s are going to be operating on the Scarborough route instead of the 68s and MK5s and the Nova 3s are going to be on the Cleethorpes services. These will be put into service sometime around May. I’m looking forward to seeing them at Sheffield and Meadowhall.
@@welovetrains Its driver training they have also be running light engine to Doncaster ,daughter is Cleethorpes driver doing her traction conversion now , Apparently they are quite rapid light engine
Can imagine the in-cab sound difference between the the actual loco and the DVT must be really weird at first for the drivers.
Totally strange coming from the roar of a beast to the silence

Nice video! When are they supposed to enter service on the Cleethorpes - Manchester/Liverpool route?
I’m not sure yet
Would be nice to know the route they will take, if/when in service.
I dont think Leeds has had a through Cleethorpes train for a while.
Manchester Liverpool clee terri
Wait will these replace the 185s between Piccadilly and cleethorpes?
Think this is to do with train swap up north scarbourgh way due to noise complaints. Think these are running the same service clee to man. I’m not 100
What service was that
This was driver training or route training. It’s been running to Doncaster and back.
