GWR 769943 Departs Redhill on Driver Training- 18/11/2022

Running gag of the non-existence of this train type aside, this video is your friendly reminder that the 769s for GWR are now at least 3 years and 2 months delayed into service.

Here we see 769943 leaving Platform 1A at Redhill a whopping 41 minutes EARLY much to my annoyance, running the 3V11 1113 Redhill to Reading on third rail power.

Fun fact: The inbound service, 3O10 0910 Reading Traincare Depot to Redhill, was 9 minutes late near Gomshall (reduced to 3 upon arrival at Redhill.) This is presumably because underpowered trains struggle going up multiple 1:96 inclines during leaf fall.
