305, 370 and 377 went off-lease February last year. 373 and 380 went off-lease in May.

Thanks. Knew I'd had a green once since Covid hit, was 380 on a Huddersfield to Castleford before 150s took over that duty. Hadn't seen any for a while though, only 153s I'd seen were running as pairs on the Huddersfield to Bradford.

There seems to be some units being shuffled around as far as allocations are concerned.

Some 150s have moved to NL from NH. And some 156/8s to Heaton from NH and NL respectively.

It’s most probably to aid the emergency timetable - the majority of the time at Sheffield station nowadays I seem to see the same units allocated to the same routes usually for about a month or so.

Are there any trains which still have not had accessible toilets fitted, other than the resurrected Pacers?

The 153s haven't, neither have 156447 or 485 (although they're due to be sent off at some point).

Theres a unit running HT to Eastleigh today Sun so presumably one of the 2 remaining non PRM 156 447 or 485.
I have 156 449 465 still at Eastleigh. Are they still there?
