East Midlands Trains 153321/158858 (30.12.2017)

Now here's an odd working! A class 153 on the Liverpool service! Mind you it actually wasn't bound for Liverpool Lime Street due to engineering works, meaning it was bound for Manchester Piccadilly with a 158 on the rear having come in from Norwich, so I guess I should actually call it the Manchester Service and not the Liverpool service then! 153321 unusually puts in an incredibly rare appearance on the Manchester service, the train seen here at Nottingham Station on platform 7B waiting to depart to Manchester Piccadilly, 158852 at the rear of the train having come in from Norwich. A rare treat for this 153 then, running the cab where the lights are at the bottom of the train.
