Avanti have just finished with their 221s, I think there are handful not publicly confirmed as taken up.

When (if) EMR puts its 810s in service, the 222s are spare (although Scotrail are tendering for a fleet) which will use many (if not all of them).

8 class 458s will be spare soon too (SWR only keeping 28 of 36)

TfW will soon have 150s and 158s off lease, remains to be seen if any are stored, or if they quickly get scrapped.

I suspect EMR might be interested in taking the 158s to strengthen their 158 fleet

The 150s are mostly rotten, many have been scrapped already. 158s will probably find a home, but that will probably be part of a cascade that enables 150s at Northern or GWR to go for scrap.

I’ve heard thru sumone that works for northern that the tfw 158s are going to northern .
