So it still leaves 201+208 on the top stabling point next to the mainline. And assuming 202+204 in the maintenance depot.

170203 and 170271 were still in service 19-11-19 on services around Norwich.
I *think* the only other one left at Norwich is 170205 which was last noted in service 12-11-19.

There was certainly a 170 on the Bury St Edmunds - Harwich International yesterday morning. I only saw the last coach so I don’t know if it was a 2 or 3 car.

I saw 271 and 203 at Stowmarket on 18-11-19. Got my last ride on 271 but didn't get chance to ride the 3 car. Wales, enjoy them!!

thanks for that :) hopefully there will also be a run onto Cardiff soon, since Friday's was cancelled.

Do we know what's running from Norwich to Tyseley...?

I believe that it's 170203, 170205 and 170271 left at Norwich, right...?

with 170201, 170202, 170204, 170208 at Tyseley which haven't been to Cardiff, and 170272 at Tyseley which had been to Cardiff,

and 170206 and 170273 currently based at Cardiff which had been delivered via Tyseley, 170207 currently based at Cardiff which had been delivered straight from Norwich, and 170270 currently based at Cardiff which had been delivered straight from Norwich but then went to Tyseley but came back to Cardiff.

Can confirm it was 170203 that was transferred to Tyseley. Just saw it at Small Heath still in full GA livery

I’m not surprised it was still in GA branding. It was the case when I last saw it early on last week and it was providing some much needed capacity for the Bury Christmas Fayre at the end of the week.
