From November SWT will start to receive trans-pennine 158s.

Each unit will go initially to Fratton for mods/refurbishment, the same
as 786/789.

After each modified unit has completed X amount of miles in service, a
170 will be returned to Porterbrook.

Unsurprisingly 170392 will be the first to be returned.

Good! :D no more new trains at Waterloo

Go on One you know you want them 170s to replace Delia and Friends.


Surely though there would still be new trains at Waterloo thanks to the many 450s and 444s

Hope they don't replace Delia just yet - I have not had a ride on her. Wonder if she likes being thrashed?
