Cheers for sharing. Nice touch to have some dust / dirt on the rubber connecting door surround that matches the ScotRail spots

So thats all the 156s done. 1x158 and 1x170 done. Slow progress.

Yeah but things are going to heat up with the new 380s, 320 refurb and 334 refurb plus talks of 156 ex SPT refurb next year.. most FSR units were reliveried only recently?

I want to see the refurbished interior of a 323 just seen an ex NWT 156 wholly refurbished interior and looks stunning with new carpets and repainted inside..

Well, not the First liveried 156s. They're still as they are (and, considering they've only been in those colours for a few years, I doubt they'll be top priority).

The reason the progress is slow is because, other than 170434 (the launch unit), they're just being done as and when needed. So, the SPT 156s were the oldest units with the carmine and cream livery, and the 320s just after them.

320s will be reliveried soon (and, to be fair, they're about due new colours and an internal refresh). 318s, probably later because they've had a refresh fairly recently. 314s aren't being done for obvious reasons (only a few more years left, all going well). And 334s are going to be started for Airdrie-Bathgate.

I think 170s and 158s will actually be the last ones to be completely done, simply because they've only recently been painted into First colours.
