Does anyone have a good idea what the actual diagrams are for London Midland's DMU fleet?

I'm particularly interested in the 170/153's used on the Hereford/Shresbury/Rugeley to New Street services.

I was also wondering if there are any specific services in need of lengthening due to overcrowding and how LM DMU could possibly be better utilized?

I think 15:40 Hereford to Birmingham New Street is 150/1
Which then goes onto the 17:59 from New Street to Great Malvern
I think 15:49 Birmingham New Street to Hereford is 170/153
I think 15:47 Shrewsbury to Birmingham New Street is 170/153

I know the ones for the Marston Vale.

The 150 is on alternative trains from Blethcley after the 0540 service. The 153 is on alternative trains form Bletchely after 0641.

After hours they live in the carriage sidings at Blethcley. The ECS runs out of the sidings to Bletchley at about 0520/0620 on a morning.

Unit swap happens on a Friday night with the pair hammering back up the WCML to Tysley
