For anyone having difficulty following, with the 317s /2 and /6 are the same thing- they're numbered 3176xx, but the TOPS information panels on the units say they're 317/2. They were previously numbered 3173xx.

It's not a difficult one to follow. Cl317/2's were the second batch of units (hence /2) but, after refurb, were classified as Cl317/6 to differentiate them.

Although numbering sequences sometimes hint at sub-classes, the mistake some people make is that this is somehow a hard and fast rule. It isn't.

Didn't want to start up a new thread with something so slight but apparently the 150/2 refresh (presumably akin to class 150/1... new upholstery and repaint of side panals and bulkheads etc) will commence in a few weeks whilst the ten ex FNW 156 refurbishment progresses at a quicker pace.

sorry I originally put this here because it is repaint/refurb based but I have now started a new thread as I forgot Northern wasn't included!

317886 is back and has joined the rest of the fleet in plain white. However, it seems like it was shoved out into service straight away as it was failed early this morning due to being full of paint fumes.

The first post of the thread is updated with the latest units
Class 321: NX: 321301-326/328-329/424/426-431. WHITE: 321327/330-339/423/432-434/436.

None of them have been refurbed or refreshed anyway.

Have they not even had new carpets in the doorways like the 317/7 and 317/8's did? I know NX wouldn't have done any more than that.

I know, as regards livery, but thought there was also some sort of internal refurbishment or refresh going as well.

Nope, the intended refresh got the kibosh when NXEA lost the 3 year extension, a year or so back. There was a unit running around with a carriage used as a test bed. But nothing further came of it.

As Tottenham Flyer says, some of them may have a new bit of carpet in the doorways, but thats it. Other than the 321/4 having there PIS updated.

Wasn't that 321 303? That was the first 321 to go for relivery, and I'm sure that came back with new carpets and new seat covers in the first class section.

Been told its been put back to normal.

Whole thing is a shambles because franchise contracts needn't stop improvements being delivered for the passenger. Like the job cuts being a penalty placed on us from the banks shabby trains is a penalty placed on us by a franchise owner 'gone wrong'- we pay the price

332, now back to normal.

Had same leather seats in FC as the FGW HSTs. A full refurb would also have seen some of the DTC/DTS coaches being fitted with 2+2 seating in standard.

Not repainted - but 43089 has now been released from Neville Hill on acceptance testing of the new engine (VP185). Yesterday was its first run in 15 months.

Added 350107 (London Midland) from a Carl Westwood photo.

LM are showing the way - 6 repaints completed, including 5 out of 30 (16.6%) Class 150.

I thought EMT would be re-liverying (sp) them fast as Stagecoach always likes to get their brand out quickly when taken over an operation.

EMT have only 3 x 153 - 153376/379/384 remaining - and they will be refurbished and reliveried in the current program.

There are 8 HST power cars : 43043/045/047/059/060/073/074/075 still in Midland Mainline. A post on Northern Railways forum suggests that 43045 maybe at Neville Hill for work. Three have been completed in the past 8 weeks.

That is it!

317649 is now a Polar Bear. It was out on the StanEx today.

Not sure if they really are doing them in number order, as 650 was still rattling around but 651 is nowhere to be seen.
