It was E035 going to BC to have all the stuff done on it to get it ready. E034 is now at Coventry in its place

Will the electrics delivered with standard mirrors enter service like that or will they be held back until camera mirrors are fitted?

All of them will be getting drive cams fitted before entering service I believe.

Drive cam is a separate thing, it's an event recorder that saves video evidence in certain circumstances.
