D9000 runs round its train at Reading on the 18 February 1998, having arrived on the well-known 1V96 service forward from Birmingham New Street. This train then formed the 1647 Liverpool Lime Street service. D9000 is owned the 9000 Trains and was on hire to Virgin Trains to cover for none-available Duffs (Class 47s)
