There are still a number of 319's official in service however most are stood down. Today the only circuit running was the 12 car set off Northampton EMD, which was formed today of 319214/219/012
The other two circuits are currently cancelled or replaced by 350's if they run.
We have 9 units currently available for service and there is a requirement for three (as above) each day.
Some 319's are in warm store at Bletchley C/S, some at Camden C/S and others at Kings Heath.

It's in Camden CS, visible from passing trains heading out of London, or was when I passed tonight. Thanks @Silverlinky , I managed to hazard a rough guess based on what was pathed at 100mph on realtime trains, so managed to bag 219 which was the last on the LNR ones I needed tonight on 2K33, it was along with 012 and 214 as you correctly mentioned.

Does this mean there are planned cancellations at present? Do you know which they are?

Is this diagram Mon to Fri only, or does it also run Saturdays?

As if by magic 319013 and 319457 left Bletchley and LNR today.
Planned cancellations to the timetable mean that most of the Watford shuttles have been removed, therefore most of the 319 booked workings have gone too.

Thanks. Going to London on Thursday and didn't want to show up to find an unknowing cancellation.
I might well aim for that diagram for a last bit of 319 action.

I’m assuming there are no plans to use the LNR ones after May?

Will the LNWR 319s be scrapped eventually? Don't see a new home for them to be honest.
All trains get scrapped eventually. Spares (ie cannibalisation) for the 769 fleet might be the first priority though.
Jacob Porrett
On Moderation
Yeah that's right. Will some go for 769 conversion for TFW/Northern/GWR?
No, we can be very confident that no further 769 conversions will happen. The production line is now closed.

Parcels. The usual routine is you get some vinyls stuck on, get some PR in a tame rail mag, do a trial run and then scrap the trains anyway.

One of my friends caught an LNWR 319 on a Saturday working at Tring.
Have any 769s (or 768s) been fitted with generating units at a location other than the now closed Loughborough facility?Parcels. The usual routine is you get some vinyls stuck on, get some PR in a tame rail mag, do a trial run and then scrap the trains anyway.

I believe 57310 took 319218 & 319013 rather than 319457

Fair enough....there is apparently another move planned for tomorrow......
No, there is booked working for them as 8 car sets in the May timetable.....three 8 car circuits per day utilising six of nine remaining units.

It would appear that 005/012/214-216/219/429/433/441 are the remaining nine in service then?

319441 went off lease last year so 319460 is presumably the other still with LNWR
