On 28 November 2024, alle four Class 690.2 units moved to their future operational location, Bohumín depot. Before that, during November, they all gradually moved from Plzeň to the VUZ Velim test centre, from which test runs on the public network were taking place (to Golčův Jeníkov).
690.248 returned to Plzeň on 26 November, and on 28 November, it was dispatched from there again. In Velim, all four were coupled for the next run, unit 690.247 then completed a return run from Kolín to Golčův Jeníkov and v. v., and then the BEMUs moved together to Bohumín.
In the 2025 timetable, they will be scheduled in a three-day diagram on the Ostrava střed - Mošnov, Ostrava Airport/Štramberk - Veřovice route (and marginally forming also passenger trains to Bohumín).
