[6] The train was assembled as the replacement for the company's aging inspection saloon,[4][7][8] and is used for entertaining corporate clients,[9] for staff trips, managers, customers, functions, and as a "moving office".

[1] In the first year of operation the Macmillan Cancer Support charity were allowed to use the train too for fund-raising.

[7] The trainset was fitted with a wiring system allowing the Class 67 to work in push–pull mode with the DVT and Mark 3 coaches.

[2]: 18  Locomotive 67029 was also modified to include a slight modification to the auto-couplers to enable connecting to the existing Mk3 buckeye couplers without touching the coach's rubbing plate[2]: 21 —although it is normally attached using buffer-and-chain coupling.
