First "refurbished" AGA 321 is out and about now apparently.
So, exactly the same as before but with seat covers made out of the same fabric as the new 360 and 170 seats They did a better job with the ex-LM 321/4s. Have the grab rails been repainted into Great Northern blue or is it just the light in the photograph?

I can confirm that 315824/825/826/838/844/846/854/855 are all in TfL Rail blue. 315845 can be added to the list as well as it must've been the unit in Ilford workshops yesterday.
I think whoever published the article on the website has been mistaken.... According to posters on the 321s they are being retrimmed at present, I assume this is a separate project to smarten them up in the meantime before refurbishment?
Are there any photos of the retrimmed Abellio 170s? I've yet to encounter one in service yet.
317510 stopped for repaint at Ilford, and 90006 has moved to Toton for repaint also.
Hi, as far as I'm aware, 321303 is apart of the Renatus Internal overhaul. 321310 has just received new seats as part of another project (aside from Renatus) I can see our article is slightly incorrect, but I've corrected it I think my fellow author found it difficult to separate the two projects.
Thanks to Sprinter Man for the promotion! :P

Haven't seen any myself either. Don't think they've began this project yet to be honest.
Any reason why the /5s are being treated? From memory they seem to have been repainted several times in the last few years whereas the 170s and 360s have not been touched in years
Anything internal as they are often a source of complaints on the ga complaints twitter feed
I understand that the 317/5's will receive an internal refresh once the 317/6's have been completed. 317513 went to Clacton a few weeks back to be 'measured up'. With Clacton putting out 1 317 per week, and given there's only a couple of the /6's left to be done, I would think we'll see a 317/5 completed before the end of the year. I'm not sure if these will be started as soon as the /6's are done or not.
315839/849/851/859 are all now in TfL Rail livery. 315854 is definitely done.
The only Shenfield 315 I saw over the previous two days with GA red doors was 315830, so this potentially could be the last one left. 315819/847/852 are unaccounted for, and one of these was visible inside Ilford workshop receiving TfL Rail vinyls. None of these was in service on Friday 13/11/15 (the other absentee was 315835).
On the London Overground side, 315809 has received LO livery (315807 hasn't, as I wrongly suspected in a previous post). A further LO 315 was in Ilford workshop for refresh, one of 315805/811/816.
One other minor thing - 315813 still retains its roller blind destinations. It is definitely the sole surviving 315 to keep these.
And 315806 So many destinations, the whole West Anglia, Great Eastern and the London & Tilbury/Southend
So it does! Thanks for that, completely missed 315806.
I don't suppose any more LO 315s have received the new livery yet?
