Class 319's into storage/withdrawals tracker

[TEW]

It's either a massive conspiracy or a simple 9 for 7 typo... I know which I'd vote for...

If you read it all it does make sense. Plan A was to lease the 12 Great Northern 317s, AFAIK that's what's happening. 319s were a backup plan if the 317s were unavailable.

Have any more 319's been withdrawn as a result of the 700's? Theyre supposed to be all gone by June.

Postings elsewhere suggest that there hasn't been a step up in 700 diagrams for a few weeks - still 19 8-car and 11 12-car workings (although they have switched the workings a little) - presumably a more fundamental switch is expected from the timetable change on 21 May.

Todays Railways are reporting that 319 422 is in storage at Wolverton. Have updated the list per se.

Also, could someone please let me know if 319 433 has entered traffic at London Midland, so I can remove this from the list. Thanks in advance.

At least one Pink 319 passed me today at Whitacre Junction heading towards Coleshill Parkway at 16:22.

EDIT: This is it: 319

Thanks,

Would that happen to be an LM one ? I know that they used to have 319s like that , but not sure if they have all been repainted

The only pink thing on that are the doors and the decals. That's purple at best, blue would be an adequate description, as would dynamic lines. This is a pink 319

 

[XCTurbostar]

For reference - the 319 was 319455.

Is 319455 going into storage at Long Marston prior to going to Wolverton to be refurbished?

Looks like it. What made me think 319.455 was in TSGN livery? Are you sure it was definitely 455 and not 453 or 454?

This shows it as 319455.

Interesting to see this being hauled away, I wonder if this has been exchanged for 319433?
I have put this on the list.
Is 319448 now in service with Northern?

319448 - no reports yet in service. Last week it was reported on the wheel lathe at Allerton.
319370/81/84/85 - a report in a forthcoming Railway Observer suggests that these have been allocated to Northern.

Just seen a picture of 427 being moved by road somewhere down the M1 taken on April 12. Not too sure where it was heading.

Any idea where 427 is now? Just so I can update the list. Thanks.

319448 was in service yesterday and I understand that it is out today on the LPY-PRE service.

I think it has been exchanged as 433 is compliant for 2020

Wolverton, I believe.

Wolverton, I believe.

That's correct.

319384 has been sighted at Wolverton painted in white livery with grey doors, this suggests that this has been allocated to London Midland.
319434 was hauled from Wolverton to Brush Loughborough for conversion for the 319 FLEX Programme.
