How many Class 150 diagrams remain in the Bristol area?

Don't take this as gospel but I think there may only be one and which does Cardiff to Portsmouth strengthening between Westbury and Cardiff, Works up from Exeter previous night and back next night. They do work in from the South West to Cardiff (0900 Cardiff to Plymouth) but go straight back. It may seem more but this is because they are covering for shortage of Turbos, in fact, I've just seen a picture on Facebook of one working on the Golden Valley today.

On Monday I went up to Bristol on the 09:25 St James' Park to Cardiff which was a 150. Is that what is diagrammed? Train very busy, needed something better than a 150! On arrival at Bristol I noted a 150+158 combination but not sure what the working was.

A Pacer worked that service a few weeks ago!

My morning train 06:00 Portsmouth to Cardiff is booked to have a 150 between Westbury and Bristol as strengthening. Probably because this service is still 158 operated and three coaches isn’t sufficient between these stations.

I think it may be booked for a 158 now

I got that train last Friday, was a refurbished 158 and empty.

Does anyone know the number/type of units currently diagrammed for the 08:22 Exmouth to Paignton?
