I’d imagine they’d be pretty well suited to Liverpool from Chester - Not many stops, better capacity than 1 x 150 and with the busiest stations at the end of the route which won’t impact dwell time as much!
With these being Angel trains are they likely to be a more permanent addition? And get the whole PRM refurb and paint job?

The 06.35 from Cardiff Central to Pembroke dock then shuttle Pembroke dock to carmarthen is booked for double 153s
What is currently running through Pontypridd? If I recall correctly, pre-COVID it was mainly single 150s and double Pacers. A double Pacer I believe is a similar length (60m) to a 3-car 150. Now, I know TfW don't have 3-car 150s at the moment, but if they don't have enough to run 4-car formations and a 2-car is insufficient capacity then perhaps hybrid 3-car 150s could be the answer. Complicated of course by the fact they now have huge PRM toilets, meaning half the hybrid units would have many more seats than the other half.
CancelledWatch this space. No info on Numbers or how many but presume WMR 153s transferring to add to the Canton population of 153s which were 24 at the last count.

Could it be TfW's last 769? I think they're waiting for one more to be delivered.Does anyone know what this move is?

Not from LM. They usually come from Castle Donnington. It's a ROG 37 - 37510 Orion according to the schedules
5Zxx code would fit with that, if it was just a loco then it would be a 0 code. Be interesting to see what it is.
Are they PRM complient ? Wonder if they are stop gaps for the MK4's?
None of the ex-Anglia Mark 3s are fully PRM compliant.
153s run Carmarthen to Pembroke Dock too
while working monday and Tuesday in a shop right by the line into Pembroke dock i have only seen 153s on branch till today which was 150 so must be on Fishguard runs
