That would make sense. Since Ilford is Bombardier, it makes sense for modification work to happen there. I’m guessing the works will consist of a full repaint, deep clean, replacement of seats covers/carpets and removal of DOO equipment.

I doubt they’ll remove the DOO equipment. WMT may not be DOO yet but it will be no surprise to anyone if they try to implement in the next few years, given what’s happening elsewhere.

Toilet was rumoured to be added as well. But the alleged fact it’s been sat there for 5 months is poor.

323242 has now been tangoed, and bears an additional Armistice Centenary vinyl at each cab end on both sides.
(Edit: Nuneaton is now fully clad in LNWR green, but no signs have changed)

Perhaps the reason why it's languished there is that the final interior (decor and layout) hasn't been decided?
There's no point in doing a full refurb until the interior's been finalised. None of the 172s currently in WMR service have any hint of interior refurbishment.

I’m guessing it’s sat there as WMT’s lease hasn’t commenced yet. They’re not going to pay for a unit which as it stands would spend a few months just on crew training on the intended routes.

Several things have occurred recently especially when it comes to supposedly soon to be cascaded stock, that makes me question just how far off the 172 cascade really is. I can see the 150’s going once the 230’s bed in on the Bedford line, but that’s about it for the next 6 months or so.

Will the LNR stations get new signs or is it possible they'll just keep the LM station signs (be it with the LM logos removed as they have been)?

Some of the ex fcc stations could do with new signs however

Although LNR don't use that font do they? Could it be a requirement that the station signs must have the brand name on them at some point?

Greater Anglia's network still has a large number of stations in either NXEA, One, or even Anglia Railways colours. They are catching up though.

It may be the case that the final sign product of LNR is still in the design stage.
