318259 has returned from Shields today after a month out of service.

Looks like 334014 is coming north from Wolverton today

And a 4th attempt for 170401 to leave Kilmarnock on Xmas Eve

Are these in connection with anything being tested to return to service?

170401 has also re-entered service. The refurb is somewhat lackluster and the aforementioned first class removal did not take place.

It was never described as a refurb. It's a refresh so a deep clean, new seat covers and carpets. The 158s are also undergoing the same

Sadly the clean didn't extend to the ceiling panels and luggage rack panels which are still caked with soot.

Assuming this is accurate then I'm astonished as the dirt/streaks where someone's maybe tried to wipe are really noticeable now.

Path in from Wolverton to Corkerhill for the return of 156503 on Friday
Cancelled, but now showing as running tomorrow instead (Tuesday 20/01). One went south today, unsure which one (19/01).

334005, 334013, 334014 and 334024 all seem to be away for quite some time?
334005 is in service today
334013 is the longest stopped
334014 will probably be back soon
334024 has not been at Wolverton that long

Which 156 has went to Wolverton in place of 156503? Also, which ones have seen attention since the programme started?

Furthermore, which of the 320/4s have still to go to Wolverton?
