    158813 is the first wrapped at Eastcroft and is almost done. The others will return for that and some other internal works at some point. 158810 is the next unit for a refresh.

    New timetable - Boston Down Carriage Sidings

    Last train out of Nottingham to Boston on a Saturday (1945) is 2x158s which stable until Monday morning. Think one comes off Eastcroft to join the inbound from Skegness and off they go. Skegness services are 2x158s Monday, Fridays and Saturdays from tomorrow.

    You'll struggle to see any current refurb units in the shed at the very back of the depot from the running lines in either direction, the main depot isn't used for refurbishments but has recently expanded for that reason

    158777 should be back in service next week, in its old colours. 158813 next in at Eastcroft possibly this weekend and should be the first external done there. 170509 arrived back at Etches Park on Thursday with 510 now at Crewe.

    777 at the moment and there's currently a push to get it wrapped at Eastcroft before but if not the next unit being done at Eastcroft will be the first to be done externally.

    EMR Regional and Connect refurbishments

    158785 has been in service for 2 days now. Looks like there's paths for 170509 and one assumes 170510 to swap out of Crewe and Etches on Sunday.

    158773 to Etches Park tonight at 0045 from Eastcroft, unusual time for the move but due to a 30mph restriction. Just seen on LinkedIn that 170507 is back to Derby on Sunday, assuming 170509 is heading the other way

    Possibly back end of this month. 158773 is awaiting an ECS to Etches, sat at Eastcroft.

    EMR Regional and Connect refurbishments

    170501-503 didn't have their top panels and vestibules painted/sprayed but from 504 they have so I'm assuming they've travelled on one of those units. I think they will go back eventually for correcting.

    It is, but I don't know what the plans for it are as the current exterior has faded in areas, so it doesn't look good.

    EMR Regional and Connect refurbishments

    158773 nearing completion but needs to head to Etches for a few things. 158777 starts it's refresh at Eastcroft on Monday.
