Northern rail timetable changes

Good morning, I have seen that some 150/1s and 150/2s have swapped across the pennines. Does anyone know the unit ids. MTIA

According to RTT, 150121 & 150122 are working off Leeds and 150271 is working off Manchester.

Makes absolute sense to me - in the NW they run coupled together or with 156's - means guard can get through to check tickets etc. In Yorkshire, don't see many running around in pairs.

Honestly I detest the 150/2’s and am disappointed they are being swapped with our 150/1’s

 

[Mat17]

Are they swapping them all, or just some?

Looks like 150121 has issues just outside Wakefield Westgate.

Ironically 150121 & 150122 were running coupled together on Knottingley’s earlier today

Why I like having Wigan Wallgate as my local station. Got a nice mix of 150/1, 156 and 158s.

The unit refurb thread states that Neville Hill's full allocation of 150s are being swapped with Newton Heath.


I also really don't like the /2, they don't have a proper cycle space.
