Question Can someone tell me more about 'Anglia'?

I've got a hornby class 86 in Anglia livery (you can find out more about the loco in the model railways forum) and i would like to know more about Anglia and their trains because it would be nice to know more about what my model would be doing in the real world. I know that they took over services on the great eastern network after privatisation and they got taken over by 'ONE', but I don't know much more than that because I didn't do trainspotting then.

Could someone give me a bit of an overview as well as information on how their trains were formed. I know that they had a fleet of class 86s and mk 2 coaches, but did they have any other locomotives for their mainline services, and how did the locomotives work? did they have them in pushpull with DVTs? or did they have some other method of getting their trains out of the terminuses?

It probably won't change the way I run my layout at all, but I'm curious to know more about it.
