Class 158745 and 158811

[BritishRail83]

We're these 2 units re numbered? If so what are there current numbers?
Thanks in advance. I'm looking at my stock books today and updating my haulage lists.

158745 was with FGW and is now probably part of a FGW 'temporary' 3 car renumbering, carrying a 1589xx number. Don't know the current details of which donors form which 3 car units.

158811 was reformed by SWT into 159106 (should be 107, see below).

158745 has been split and the current situation is-
52745 has been attached to 158750 to form 158953 (57750,52750,52745)
57745 has been attached to 158762 to form 158952 (57762,52762,57745)
The FGW 158/9s do occasionally swap formations due to maintenance requirements.

I have got 158811 converted to 159107 (still the same coaches), 158809 was converted to 159106.

Yes, that's what the P5 book shows as well - I must have had some wrong info - IIRC there were a few changes to formations during the various conversions, but it's all a while ago now...

I think 106 and 107 swapped an end coach on conversion, they were reformed back to original formation after a few months, this meant that the door colours were wrong as when originally converted the colour scheme was changed and one was done in version 1 (red doors) and the other was done in version 2 (orange doors), I cant remember which was which.

this is testing my memory!
