Tiny, just over a dozen of drivers and conductors. Routes are Norwich to Liverpool via Grantham and Melton, and Nottingham to Leicester and Worksop.

But conductors do. So not wrong again. The question did not specify driver or conductor, and I did not either.

How big is EMT's Norwich depot and do they do any other work away from Liverpool - Norwich?

They have a good relationship with Greater Anglia who will do minor things at Crown Point for them, EMT operate a couple of Greater Anglia services to and from Great Yarmouth and Lowestoft

At night time there are three that finish at Norwich and they sit in the platform all night, sometimes on a Sunday any unused stock will sit in the siding next to the station on the Clarence Road side.

These GYM and LWT services are, of course, worked by Greater Anglia train crew with EMT stock.

The only GA services worked by 158s. Good for type knowledge then.

EMT do not sign any other route from Norwich. These 158s are also hired ad-hoc by GA, for example if engineering blocks the route towards Peterborough when up to 4 units stable sometimes all weekend in the Jubillee Sidings at Norwich. As only the East Suffolk link drivers & Local/Cambridge link guards sign them, it can be a pain in the neck for the Shift TC Manager to cover.
