I saw it a couple of weeks ago in the depot, so I assume it's still here.

It's found its way out at some point, and is my X15 to Berwick this evening. Not sure if this classifies as a rare/odd working, given that this isn't a 'MAX' vehicle? 

Forgot just how awful the thing is.

It's been swapped off the 35 then, as it was on the 35 earlier in the day. 

It's listed as a MAX vehicle, but engineering like it to be used on the 35

Can understand why they like it to be used on the 35. Still has that unusual shuddering when standing, and took an age to get up to any sort of speed. It did stop pretty well though, so it's got that going for it...
