are these C6 Exams or other?

You've got the extra even hour departures from Aberystwyth that go only as far as Shrewsbury.

And 67s possibly, after the (failed) shakedown run the other day 023 and 027 are at Coleham

612 is currently at Barrow Hil, 610 is active

Yes

Tbh wondering about 401, considering its under some heavy-ish repairs at Barrow hill. Perhaps they will have to ditch 401 in favour of one of their green ones

197033 and 197024 ran to Dovey Jnc today, 033 then ran around 024 to head back to Shrewsbury.

Didnt know the 158s had AC, always thought it was never re-fitted as they still have the original roof vents, Also for the fact that ive never experienced the AC on a ATW/TfW 158

37424+425 are destined to HNRC, Barrow Hill or Worksop.

But isn't that what Donnington was for anyways? Doesn't seem like much of a point to move them elsewhere, unless they will all be delivered to Long Marston from now on (Perhaps Contract stuff and all that)

Something I've noticed while looking at the 159 units is that some seem to have these boxes on the roof at the inner end on 1 driving coach per unit, It appears to be 3 Boxes with a cable or pipe running in-between them It would be great if someone could explain what these are and which units...

Thats a shame, would be nice as a sort of special livery

Anyone know what unit this 195 is and whether is still has the vinyls on?
