The lease officially ends next February although SWT have said that they will return the units to Porterbrook once DES availability reaches 96%.

At the moment the 458's only operate three Waterloo-Reading diagrams (weekdays) so only 6 out of 30 units are in use.

Porterbrook has tendered to supply 22 refurbished 458 units for the ELL in 2009.
