In a 321 today and saw new seat covers in Grey with a small white pattern with Dark Red on Metal fitting like Poles. Looked quite neat I thought.

Seems that Abellio have done something in 8 months that NX couldn't manage in 8 years...

Does look very smart, though apparently this nice refresh will only be carried out on the 321/4's that came from the WCML with NSE/Silverlink refreshed interiors. So you'll still see many 321's with green and blue inside.

There is one 360 in NXEA silver, and until recently the old 317's in Stan Ex, and not too long ok the old WAGN in grey, orange and blue with Red doors was knocking around.

What abut the 321's that came from outside the franchise, what livery are they in these days? There are also quite a few variations of the 'one' livery are there any with the rainbow stripes left and the varying different shades?

Also back in the early days of the franchise it was not uncommon for a loco rake to have four or five different liveries in it, including even BR Intercity. WAGN also had about 5/6 when the franchise started and there were numerous interim liveries, and variations on the standard one livery.

Aren't some of the 170s still wearing Midland Mainline base livery?
No, all of the former Midland Mainline 170s were 170/1s that went to Crosscountry and were re-vinyled ages ago. There's 170s on GA still in the old Anglia base livery, as SprinterMan points out.

The ex Sliverlink 321s are now all in GA ghostly white with red doors...

So, only a few more liveries than what FGW once had then!

The jubilee 90 is rubbish. It's just a de-branded one livery with a union flag whacked on side!

Actually, none of the ex Silverlink 321's are in GA Ghostly white with red doors. Under NX, all of the ex Silverlink units were reliveried and carry either NX livery, now minus the stripes, or plain white with blue doors.

1p14 09:00 LST-NRW
1p33 11:30 NRW-LST
1p34 14:00 LST-NRW
1p53 16:30 NRW-LST
1p58 19:00 LST-NRW

Today :D Maiden voyage & diagram starts with 1P11 06.50 ex-Norwich.

I went on this train, the 7:34 ex. Ipswich today, not to see the repainted carriage, but because I was already planning to get that train. The buffet carriage definitely stood out as did the big 1's on it to indicate First Class which looked very traditional.

I saw 10229 at Norwich yesterday before it worked the 1630 NRW-LST. Looked very smart, but also looked out of place in a rake of grubby ONE coaches. They didn't keep the old ONE drawings of food and drink on the buffet car which I were always a nice touch.

10229 can be seen at the end of this video I took
