Have NXEA just given up on repainting? The trains are looking a real state since they removed the "One" stripes- though not as bad as an XC Turbostar I saw this morning- ex Central Trains livery, the green was covered in large darker splodges. Hardly a good look. Must be fantastic at the airport- "Welcome to Britain, your train now standing at Platfrom 3 is a s$&@heap". The Stansted Express units are as bad (on the outside).

Then of course NXEA still have at least one Turbostar in Anglia livery (complete with branding).

Yes i to have started to wandre weather NXEA had given up on repainting the 360s look realy scruffy now a bit like your XC turbostars.
Just a quick note about the XC 221s XC are decomisioning the tilt system instead of just isolating it.

Saw one of the 317s that's still in WAGN White- well, mainly, as there's large patches where there appears to be no paint!

I did a check on fotopic search function and can add 7 more for London Midland:

170508/509/512/632 and 350108/116/120.

LM have 5 x 350 not yet reliveried - 350109/111/118/121/130.

XC started slowly and have gained pace with the Class 220 - only 8 remain: 220004/010/020/023/024/032/033/034.

The countdown is on!!

Train home last night, one of the NXEA liveried 317s. Can't remember which one. But anyway, the branding on the side is already looking very, very faded. How cheap a job did they get done?

15th JULY - fotopic shows 220024 in XC livery - ONLY 2 left!!

Yahoo forums suggest that of the 5 LM Class 350, 121 and 130 are in bare grey ready for relivery.

Countdown continues - LM at 5 and XC at 3.

Suggested on another site that the XC cars are either 43301 or 43303, and lesser chance of 43285.

thejunction.org.uk now lists the cars as renumbered with mtu engines.

43085 - former Midland Mainline livery, now in XC, at Loughborough, now 43285
43101 - former Virgin livery, now in XC, at Loughborough, now 43301
43103 - still in Virgin, at Loughborough, to be 43303
43121 - still in Virgin, at Loughborough, to be 43321
43157 - still in Virgin, at Loughborough, to be 43357
