 I noticed the pan up on one of those cars on Sunday, and noticed it 
had been lowered again on Monday.
 I some what wonder the safety implications of a group of volunteers
engergising the electrics on a carrage that has not been operated by
the railways for a couple of years and hasnt been checked over by
the workshops.

 I do hope that they did have a railway certified electrical fitter
around, or that the section of overhead is isolated.
 The thought of a bunch of well meaning but non qualified gunzels playing
with a 1500VDC power system give me the horrors.
