There are 56 seats on the demonstrator and they are more comfortable than most mainline train seats nowadays.<br>[&copy; Mike Allen 2021]

A cab view southeast on the Oil Siding which joins the former Up line (from double track days) ahead - latterly it was a headshunt ending at the Power Station boundary. Far right is the Up & Down Branch, left is to Madeley Jn and once Wellington; straight on was once to Bridgnorth.<br>[&copy; Chris Parker 2021]
