I managed a photo of 333011 on 28 April in service. https://www.flickr.com/photos/railphotosonline/40756525913/in/dateposted/333011 is back in service
That's good, does it still retain its name 'Olicana'?I managed a photo of 333011 on 28 April in service. https://www.flickr.com/photos/railphotosonline/40756525913/in/dateposted/
Can’t say for certain but I don’t recall seeing any nameplates/stickers on the unit so looks to of been de-named.That's good, does it still retain its name 'Olicana'?
im guessing that if 333011 has been de-named then 333007 will probably be de-namedCan’t say for certain but I don’t recall seeing any nameplates/stickers on the unit so looks to of been de-named.

Is the refurbishment programme causing or exacerbating a shortage of 333s? 1817 Skipton-Leeds was 158759 today and there appeared to be 2 or 3 321/322s out through Keighley today as well.
ThanksNope, it has been denamed
A 333 should really run Leeds to Doncaster's if they don't have enough 32x's IMHO and They should really send a DMU to work triangle services. (the reason I say this is because the 333s are more than capable of doing that route)158754 was also on the Leeds-Doncaster route today
158754 was also on the Leeds/Doncaster all day on Saturday too.Is the refurbishment programme causing or exacerbating a shortage of 333s? 1817 Skipton-Leeds was 158759 today and there appeared to be 2 or 3 321/322s out through Keighley today as well.

Probably also comes down to crew knowledge as I don’t think Doncaster crews sign 333’s but both Leeds and Doncaster crews will sign 158’s
Is it still tagged with graffitiSat on 333001 currently; the first refurbished one I’ve been on. Have to say the moquette seat covers are a massive improvement over the dross Northern were using before.

Not the side I saw.Is it still tagged with graffiti
Is that how you got a refurbished 333 from LeedsI think today's been the first day that I've had refurbed units into and out of Leeds- 333011 in and 333013 out.
Odd short-notice unit swap at Leeds though- the 1703 Ilkley was all ready to go with a few minutes to departure formed of 333004, when a woman (passenger) boarded and told everybody it had been swapped with the Bradford train which follows it. Nothing formally announced, but the driver of the "new" Bradford train confirmed it, so everybody piled off with about 2 minutes left. At least one person wanting the Bradford train having to change at Guiseley s a consequence. Seemed strange as as both services seem to have run normally thereafter unless the refurbed unit was being taken to Ilkley for promotional purposes or something.
And this is the return:Some paths Holbeck to/from Nevill hill Sat (fri was cancelled) prob 333 012 completed and 333 ??? to Holbeck for refresh.

According to 507021s excellent railblog see https://merseyrailpep507.blogspot.com/p/unofficial-northern-fleet-list.htmlOK, I've lost track - can someone please summarise which ones have been done so far.
Many thanks. I've had 1, 11 and 13 in refurbished condition, so I'll keep an eye out for 12 and 15. Something to make the commute slightly more interesting.According to 507021s excellent railblog see https://merseyrailpep507.blogspot.com/p/unofficial-northern-fleet-list.html
333 001, 011, 013, 015 have been done. As reported above it looks like 333 012 can be added and another moved to Holbeck for refresh.
