A 320/4 required the attendence of the fire brigade at Dalmuir on 7th October. Not sure which unit it was, let alone how serious the damage was.

Axlebox fire. Nothing too dramatic. 385010 and another two 4 car sets are out of use after suffering damage in fatalities.

Yeah, the picture on the Glasgow Live article clearly showed that it wasn't anything too serious. Hardly a transformer going up or anything.

Understandable about the 385s though.

I think there are a couple of 153s that haven’t been in service for a good few months too?

I’m pretty sure 153370 and 153373 have not been on RTT for some time.

Most of the 153s aren't required during winter months due to low passenger usage should reappear more frequently when tourist season kicks in

Ah right. Understood. Are they simply kept at Corkerhill out of the way in the meantime?

The 153s are all withdrawn undergoing reliability mods and won't be back till well into the new year. No need for them anyway.

318251 - any idea if this is stopped awaiting parts or is it under overhaul?
(Are the 318 fleet due a C4 ? )

334031 hasn't been shown on RTT for a while, I've checked that countless times for it. Any ideas?

156474 making its way back up soon.

This has taken around 5 months for its works, however Wolverton Works says they're hoping to recruit more welders to make the turnaround time for each unit just 45 days.
