Northern Rail Class 156 PRM Mods

[northernrailer]

I have noticed that 156454 & 156482 have had the same treatment as AGA class 156 units, with a new bigger toilets, PIS internally and destination blinds removed. At the moment its the Angel Trains leasing company units that are being done first:

This leaves: 156438, 156443, 156444, 156448, 156451, 156463, 156468, 156469, 156471, 156472, 156475, 156479, 156480, 156481, 156483, 156484, 156486, 156487, 156489, 156490,156491 still to be completed.

Does anyone know which unit is currently being made compliant at works?

444 has been done.

Think 443/448 were next.

Are there any photos of these? Are they in passenger service? I hadn't heard work was starting on Northern's!

Any chance of an update, please

As far as I'm aware the following units have hade these moderfications fitted:

156443, 156444, 156451, 156454, 156463, 156471, 156472 and 156482. 156480 has been pictured on Flickr on its way to get these moderfications done so that will be added onto the list shortly.

I sure hope not this won't be classed as "refurbishment" of the 156 units on Northern but I got a feeling it could well be.
