Motor alternator (MA) failed.
Does anyone have an idea what is going to happen to 313212, and whether they are going to repair that fault, or (in the case that it is too major for the amount of service time the 313s have left) whether they are going to prepare the unit for scrapping?

I suspect it's a maintenance-intensive piece of kit so depends on whether the fitters/maintenance guys feel it's worthwhile. Also depends what spares (if any) were kept by from the recently-departed scrapper units. With roughly 8-9 weeks left to go until wholesale withdrawal of the fleet, who knows?

Apologies if this has already been covered repeatedly, but what are the 313 diagrams for non-football Saturdays?

Aren't Brighton playing at home on Saturday 1st April? Won't there be a 6-313 working then?

Edit: Being train strike day, then obviously no. Will the match be postponed I wonder?
There is no strike anymore so it could still happen
