Pinky left Wolverton again today. And went back there again.

And that goes for 319002 too, which has had a mini-refresh to go with it.

That's why I ain't seen it for many a moon then! Would have been nice if it had been refurbished too, too much to ask for from ATW...:roll:

Coupled, of course :p

Repeatedly uncoupling and coupling of course...:lol:

Anyone know when 150265 will be done?

From fotopic 175102 in ATW livery.

From yahoo groups, 175103 left Oxley and believed to be in ATW livery.

Passing Hornsey this weekend, I saw a 321 looking freshly painted into FCC livery- similar to the 377s, solid purple with no fade to blue. No logos applied.

That'll be 404. I'd love to know what's been done inside.

319003 has also acquired the full FCC livery.

Thanks westcoaster for FCC 319377.

Also added 317341 and 319368 in FCC.

the junction.org.uk notes that the refurbishment program will halt until FCC have sufficient stock with Class 377/5 deliveries for timetable changes

321404 finally snapped in the full FCC livery, or to be more precise the second incarnation of it. The 'Urban Lights' and FCC decals are the same - however the background colour is violet/navy blue throughout and does not graduate to sky blue; the roof is also a lighter shade of grey.

Regarding the whole FCC fleet, all 313s bear the 1st-gen livery, as do most 317s/319s and I suspect those still bearing older liveries will follow suit. It looks like 4 more 321s will acquire the 2nd-gen livery in the short term as will any currently incomplete 377s; those already completed lack only the 'Urban Lights' and FCC decals.

I am not sure the 321 and 377 with the solid dark blue (almost purple) looks as good as the graduated one used originally, but I doubt many people will notice.

There were two 321s paired up today, and I think they were both fully liveried up - but couldn't quite see.

If you get the chance look out for 319441. Its been repainted in the base colours over the middle of the unit. Will upload a photo of it at city. Looks werid as it matches the 377/5 in the middle now and gives a great impression how they do the current livery.

I expect 319446 will get silmar treatment as its been heavy vanlised on one side.

**UPDATE**

Now have picture of 319441 with the vinyl screwed up on my flickr. Link below.

saw 158821 yesterday night looking very smart in arriva turquoise and cream cab ends. Shame that nothing seems to be happening with the fast ageing interiors though.

I just noticed today that 319008 has had the FCC upholstory applied, but no other changes I could see (Southern livery with FCC sticker). I assume this happened when it was at Wolverton in February, but it doesn't seem to have been mentioned so far.

175116 has returned from Oxley, leaving just 175115. A replica of 116's name plates (Peter V L Jones Community Rail Officer Conwy Valley Line) will be presented to the Conwy Valley Railway Museum this Wednesday as part of the line's 130th anniversary.
