[sbrignall72]

Couldn't get resource to return 150225 back from Kilmarnock over the weekend so it will probably be sometime this week.

Ok i will keep an eye out for the movement

Looking very sad indeed economically unviable to bring back which is sad

Yes, it does on the 150, 155 & 156's. Not on the 158's though.

One for diligentdave are there new dates in the system for the return of 150107, 150225, 150275, 156452. Just looked and there are no timings in the system for Long Marston, Kilmarnock and Wolverton. MTIA

Did the 158 3 cars not have their carpets renewed? If not they used one heck of a cleaner on them as they looked pretty amazing on their return from Brodies

Is 158905 still in Crewe, and why are they not getting repainted like all the other units getting refurbished.

They don't paint them at Crewe.

158905 is currently stopped at Neville Hill. The repaints aren't due for a couple more years yet.

No worries! My caption on that photo ended up being incorrect, unsure why it hasn’t been stripped yet, guessing there’s just been more important work ongoing at times.

Interesting you can clearly see where the 9 has been put on top of the 4
I thought it had been renumbered to 156407 but that seems to not be the case.

You'd imagine it would've been renumbered as it was EMR that numbered them as /9 due to PA system change to match Northern units before it was sent to us. In the end as you probably know another 156 was picked in its place and 407 never ran in passenger service again

Are there any 333s still left with the old PIS? Or are the up downgrade works now complete?

 

[david l]

5Q08 Allerton-Kilmarnock today, loco at AN for this 769 drag (769442). 769424 coming back tomorrow. See how long that one lasts............

Edit:- Move from AN cancelled at operators request. Ran from AN to Edge Hill to run round but got no further. 37884 and 769442 reported to have communication difficulties, both returned to AN separately! 37884 (having come LD from Derby this morning) now returning to DY as 0Z37.

I was on 015 the other day and that still had the old system

 

[reecestrains]

No sign of 015 in service today, I don't know where it last ended.

There can't be many units left with the original PIS.

Looking back at Realtime trains it hasn’t been out since Wednesday, and it finished at Skipton

It could now be in for the TrainFX mod if it hasn't been out since then. I don't know though because I haven't been up there lately.

 

[Russel]

Regarding 195104, what damage was caused during it's derailment, given it's been under repair for 2 years?

It is.

 

[reecestrains]

It is.

Thanks for clarifying. There can't be many units left now with the original PIS, probably another one or two I'm not 100% sure.

333015 is being done now. I went past it earlier today

 

[diligentdave]

Have repairs started yet?

Not really. The vehicles are all sat on stands with bogies out at the moment. Lots of background work ongoing over scope of repairs and bogie overhauls. Won't see this unit for some time still.

I wouldn't be surprised if 015 is the last 333 to get the downgrades fitted. I think the rest have already recieved the downgrades
