Any idea what is the situation with 507008 - seems to have been in the same position on Kirkdale depot all week, I first noticed it last Saturday?

Warning for storm related issues on Friday afternoon

RE: Merseyrail - MX12CFE - 21/02/2022 12:21
Services were disrupted on the Ormskirk line on Friday afternoon after a car was driven at speed through the level crossing at Maghull while the barriers were in the down position, destroying the barriers and leaving them strewn across the tracks. Trains were terminating and starting back from Aintree and started going back up to Ormskirk a short time later with rail staff signalling the trains by hand over Maghull level crossing with trains sounding their horns on approach and Police closing the road.

3 more 777s are moving across from Poland next week, over two nights
RE: Merseyrail - 507022 - 09/03/2022 23:54
777049 is one of the three 777s coming over next Wednesday. I’ll post the numbers of the others later if I can find out

Where are these units heading for-Crewe?
Is 049 one of the battery units?
RE: Merseyrail - 313201 - 12/03/2022 16:56
Not sure where 049 will be heading to although my guess would be possibly kirkdale for testing on the power.
As for the battery units I think its 777001 - 006 that are the vattery units, this being based on 002 being driven on battery power when it was demonstrated at long marston i believe it was.

All three are coming to Crewe on Wednesday morning, two are then going forward Wednesday night and the third on Thursday night.
777049 isn’t a battery unit. Basically all the odd numbers are built in Poland and the even numbers are from Switzerland. All the battery ones are from Switzerland so I’m guessing the battery ones could be 040/42/44/46/48/50/52, but time will tell!

All the units have battery power for use in sidings etc.
But seven of the 53 will have long range batteries for working to Headbolt Lane and I think that is what you’re referring to - they will probably be the last to be delivered. In due course, if extensions to Burscough, Neston and Skem go ahead all the rest will be retrospectively fitted with long range batteries

It seems as though it will be 777013, 777015 and 777049 coming this week, according to this post on instagram below showing the 3 units being transported in Briesen, Germany;

I wonder why 049 has been selected to arrive, seems out-of-sync with the other units delivered so far?
