Also, i meant 315s which still have their underground symbols on them.
I appreciate that but a) are there any 315s at Ely?, b) 313 was written in the heading and the message, c) the 'underground symbols' say TfL Rail not underground.

Isn't it 317s that go to Ely for storage from Ilford?

315s are definitely at Ely, unless they've been moved within the past week. I will see if i can change the heading. Also, the 'underground symbols' do say overground, not Tfl.

Yes, there were two fleets after 2015 - 315801-315817 said 'Overground' - they have all now left London replaced by the 710s - 315818-315861 said 'TfL Rail' - 14 of those are still operational, the others have gone for scrap.

Some 317s said 'Overground' on the side and definitely did go to Ely. I appreciate that the paint scheme was the same.

I suspect they were 317s - there is no mention of 315s at Ely in the Class 315 withdrawals thread https://www.railforums.co.uk/threads/class-315-withdrawals.153008/ other than to refer to 317s.

It seems unlikely that any 315s will now go to Ely.
