New Class 555 testing (15/04/24)

During the introduction of the new Stadler Class 555s to the Tyne & Wear Metro, there have been a number of tests carried out throughout the network in the middle of the night because these can’t test when the older Class 994s are active
Also apologies if I haven’t been active in over 2 months on KZbin, there has been many personal issues in my life which I don’t want to mention but I’m back now feeling much better

Very nice video! One question: Does the train have backup batteries for the traction motors? Because at 1:07 you can clearly see that it is operation with its pantographo lowered!

Yep, have batteries too
