No, 158821 is the third.
Yeah, going by the time it took to do 838 and suggestions on here (or perhaps some other web site) that the referbs were being accelerated after 838 I had expected the 3rd referb out somtime in the last few days.

Rumour mill suggests 158841.
Some of you seem very knowledgeable about the refurbished 158s on the B'ham to Pwllheli line. I am about to book my ticket for my annual holiday in North Wales, could anyone please answer the following for me. What seat nos are near the luggage racks and toilets? Are they table seats or airline? Are there any priority seats as I would like as much legroom as possible as the journey is nearly 5 hours? If so what nos are these and are they near luggage rack and toilet? Are all the trains on this line now refurbished? Thank you.

I can't tell you much about the interiors (as I haven't found one down here yet) but from the above posts four units have been refurbished so far. With 20 to go, that's roughly a 17% chance of getting a fresh unit.
