Does anyone know if 444001 and 450001/101 are in service yet?
The 2 websites below give the following details, but 450001 is not

AFAIK none of them are yet in traffic. 450 101 was the set that was derailed
and damaged in Belgium in the course of delivery. It was subsequently
returned for repair.

In a casual discussion yesterday, I heard that 444001 has either just
completed or is about to complete final commissioning.

Apparently there was a low key or unofficial photo session at
Bournemouth with the relevent team members clustered around the unit
front pointing to the unit number.
