A couple of points:

I thought GWR only had 166s at SPM for the Avonmouth Line?

Are 153s cleared on the line?

Since when has XC served Ivybridge?!

Class 158 to Worcester Foregate Street.

Are 153s cleared on the line?
The other morning the first train of the day along the Severn Beach branch was a 153/150 combination. I may be able to verify the unit numbers tomorrow.

Since when has XC served Ivybridge?!
This one did yesterday (02/09/17).
1V54 0632 Dundee to Penzance - CrossCountry service departing on 2nd September 2017

Schedule Information
VAR schedule UID P31971, identity 1V54
It as a VAR schedule not a normal WTT schedule, so I don't believe they do normally.

Class 67 + Mk III Coaching Stock to Chester

You are correct - I've just had a look on Flickr and there are several photos of 153s on the line to as recent as 2014.

As A Challenge said, that was a VAR code, so a variation to the normal working timetable. Ivybridge certainly isn't served by XC under normal circumstances.

I take it that should have been 350/7?

Midland Metro Tram to The Hawthorns

Class 172 to Stratford-upon-Avon Parkway.
