Refurbed D78 Train (?) set loose! Sept 8, 2005 19:47:34 GMT

This evening I was at Mile End waiting for an EB Central Line service (which was up the creek because of communication equipment probs, 5mins for the next Hainualt via Newbury Park service was shown on the Dot Matrix Monitors, more like 5 years!) and Train 4? 7088 (West End) - 7005 (East End) pulled in on a Westbound service on the District, how long has 7088-7005 been out on the mainline?

I managed to get a Photo of 7005 by putting my Camera on top of the 'Train Operators Information' board to hold the camera still. (I would of tried to get a Photo of the whole Train, but I had a massive OPO monitor in the way!)

Enjoy the Photo.
