153320 now back in TFW livery and with PRM mods
Click to expand...
Yes, it was on the back of 170208 and 170201 from Tyseley to Canton on Friday. I lost my phone at the last minute and was therefore unable to capture the 7-car formation going through Central, especially as no other spotters / enthusiasts were around - not sure why not...? Absolutely gutted :'( @DanTrainMan185 as I had lost my phone, the list was a little out of date until this evening / tonight when I updated it (including 150208 with PRM mods which I had seen in person)

150282 is currently on it's way from Crewe to Cardiff this evening on 5Z50 presumably after PRM mods
150256 should be heading up on 2155 Cardiff to Crewe tonight to take its place and have its mods done.

175009 was in service today with a refurb - seen at Cardiff Central.

150282 was also seen at Cardiff Central today back in service with its new PRM mods.

170203 was delivered "tomorrow" (edited post!)

Will update the list in a bit, but won't post another message to say that it's been updated.

Just passed Arriva Traincare depot at Crewe. Inside the shed was a rake of Ex-LNER livery Mk4s with Transport for Wales branding applied to the white parts of the body sides. As expected but thought I’d post to confirm

Can't comment on the TFW Stock Shortages thread as it's now closed, but it looks as if 142073 is withdrawn again as it's at the buffers at Canton sidings trapped in by 153309 (and has been there for quite some time), so it looks as if it's on it's way out again! This was the unit that was withdrawn last year with underframe problems.

In other news, 175111 has been on Maesteg to Cardiff duties which seems such a waste of a DMU. Whereas, in typical TFW Sunday fashion, a 150 is probably shaking it's way down the Marches on a Manchester to Milford Haven :lol:
