2x 319s Info

[03_179]

Hi,

Can anyone advise about renumbering.

319164
319169

What were their alternative numbers?

Also if anyone has a full list of 319 renumbering that would be brilliant.

Thanks in advance

319164 became 319364 now in sevice with Northern

319169 became 319369 also in service with Northern.

The original batch of 319's were originally numbered as the 319/0's built in 1988. The second batch of 319's were originally numbers as the 319/1's built in 1990.

The newer batch were remembered into 319/3's upon their refurbishment

The older batch were split into the 319/0, 319/2 and 319/4 upon refurbishment.

Hope this helps.

319.001 - 319.060 originally built as two batches concurrently between April 1987 and Aug 1988. 319.161 - 319.186 also built as two batches (from memory) between Sep 1990 and March 1991.

Things got complicated with numerous refurbishments/renumbering but 319.014 - 319.020 became 319.214 - 319.220 for the Connex (Brighton) Express and 319.021 - 319.060 were refurbished as 319.421 - 319.460 and had first class added whilst 319.161 - 319.186 were refurbished as 319.361 - 319.386 and had first class removed. Can't remember dates but late 1990s/early 2000s I think. 319.001 - 319.013 were largely untouched and retain their original numbers to this day.
