Juat saw an S Stock train at Northfields Depot. I'm guessing that it's there for testing on South Ealing Test Track but can someone enlighten me on why it's really there?

Gotten a few photos of it when I went past, however, unfortunately, I'm on holiday, so I didn't get a chance to upload them onto flickr. Is it 21305 @jammz ?

Its just incase some trains get lost going to Ealing Common and decide they fancy a change of scenery to make sure they are correct to gauge and the signals are sighted correctly |

There is major work going on inside the sheds at Ealing Common & Upminster so extra stabling is needed at the moment with new S7 deliveries and the limited number that can be run on the H&C for the time being.
Don't forget that Northfields used to be on the District Line.
