Its in for C6 and CSO work as part of the Porterbrook program.

As part of a modification program that's been completed at Heaton but the team is now at Newton Heath so to ensure the unit gets captured (it's a sander mod).

Not as far as I know.

That was 156481. It had to move to Neville Hill beforehand because of ROG's driver operating hours would of been exceeded if it was sent from Heaton the previous day.

424 & 442 are both available at Allerton. Of the others, 421 being used for driver training (minus a few bits), 448 has an engine issue, 452 is undergoing Northern conversion tasks, 456 still at Brodies. 458 has a defective traction motor/wheelset.

So, 150218 has been out of service for 600 plus days. With the extensive rebuild and rewire that it's had, would you run it down the WCML on it's own? That's why 150128 was sent to lead on the way back. 156481 should be about 3 weeks (ish).

156481. Move caped but possibly now Monday.

156460 has indeed transferred across to Heaton. 156466 is at Heaton for it's C4 exam, that's all. It returns this Saturday (16th) to Newton Heath.

150218 is currently expected to sort of maybe return possibly on the 21st August. 156420 (do you mean 402?) 156402 has returned to Heaton but is waiting for an exam. Yes, sort of. The 150's are down to about 90 (ish) days.

The movement should of been 158756 and 156402 but the 158 wasn't available to move and the timings couldn't be amended so the 156 still moved to Neville Hill for a move to Heaton on Thursday. 156402 is moving to Heaton for a little while to cover for other Angel 156's currently ongoing C6.

Yes, only the 158/9's are being done at Crewe. The Porterbrook 158/7 3 car units have all gone through Brodie Engineering in Kilmarnock (with a couple returning for retrospective work). The Angel 158 fleet is yet to be awarded but will be done by Angel under contract to whoever.

I know who decides this info but cannot say. It's all to do with where the units are within their heavy maintenance life. C4 overhauls and C6 overhauls.

I'm not saying nothing.

I had it input early June due to excessive corrosion. C6 starts next week. The bogies have been removed to undertake some work on the underframe. Diligentdave (me) is on holiday. I’ll update when I return.

Correct. Now denamed.

Yes, appears to now be a Heaton unit.

MID (Manchester International Depot) or New Bank Street as they call it now. 323241 is the first unit.

156402 going for repairs.
