458521 is the next unit to go to Widnes for conversion. Due to move from Wimbledon to Bournemouth on Friday 8th March and then move to Widnes on Tuesday 12th March.

I think it is 458424 coming back. The next move to Widnes should be 458522 moving from Bournemouth depot on Tuesday 27th Feb. This means it is likely to stop at Wimbledon Wednesday 21st or Thursday 22nd as it planed to move from Wimbledon to Bournemouth on Friday 23rd Feb.

Quite possibly. It should move to Bournemouth shortly after for preparation to move to Widnes (Strapping up collector shoes, removal of step boards etc.)

458515 should be the next unit to head North. Planned to leave Bournemouth Tuesday 13th Feb (unless plans change).

I’m not sure where you have seen this as nothing is in the public domain yet, but the information is true. The 379s are set to be sold to a different Rosco who are waiting for the DFT to sign the Great Northern lease agreement before the deal is announced. They need to hurry up as it is the...

The tenth unit to head off to Widnes for conversion should be 458520 and is planned to leave on 23rd January.

458504 is the next unit to go to Widnes. It is currently in the shed at Bournemouth being prepared to go.

It is indeed out of the first class area of a 458/5. The seats were taken out at Bournemouth depot prior to the unit(s) being sent to Widnes.

If a freight train has failed and is blocking several passenger trains from reaching their destinations then getting that freight train moving and out of the way is a priority.

The interiors are in excellent condition as the 379s are receiving maintenance while they are in store. Every 14 days each unit is moved to the exam siding at Worksop and given an exam where the auxiliary electrical system is powered up and various checks are carried out. There are also reports...

458524 should be the 8th unit to go to Widnes for conversion early November.

There are a lot of assumptions that the person in the incident didn’t have a ticket, which may or may not have been the case. The issue here, surely, is that Merseyrail insist you print out tickets purchased from third party retailers such as trainline. Tickets that can be shown as e-tickets in...

458516 is the next unit for Widnes.

You are correct. They will work the RHTT Anglia circuit (based out of Broxbourne I believe) and then join the stock movement fleet based at Beale Street when not on RHTT duties.

That was certainly the plan. Arrive Widnes early Tuesday.

This move on Tuesday 1st August should be 57305, 57306 & 57310 finally leaving DRS for their new home with GBRF https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/service/gb-nr:R02245/2023-08-01/detailed

Network Rail insisting that it should run as a 5Xxx head code rather than a 5Qxx head code.
