One of Merseyrail's new Class 777s from Stadler sits in the sun on 8 June 2021. 777008 is one of five of these units seen on Kirkdale depot while others are stored at Old Walton's Jct near Warrington. Some test runs on the Merseyrail network have been reported but it was only around the depot that they moved during my time at the station. Of note these units are 4-car but they are around the same length as the 3-car Class 507s and 508s they will replace. They also feature articulated bogies.
Location: Kirkdale

One of Merseyrails new Stadler Class 777s is seen in platform 1 at Southport whilst out on the afternoon test run from Sandhills on 28 September 2021. The units are 4 car however the inner two cars are shorter than the driving cars resulting in the Class 777 being only slightly longer than the Class 507s and 508s that they will replace. See image [[78431]] for the interior of these units.
