How many more /2s are there to go? Keep seeing 4 car units where both sets are refurbished, must be close now!!
According to the last update there were just 211-213 and 217 unrefurbished, 212 is now out and 213 came back today so presumably another went to replace 213 so probably 1 is now not refurbished.

Just seen 350106 at New Street today in unbranded livery - how come it had its vinyls applied then taken off when it returned to service?

Also, I'm almost certain that all 172/0s and 172/3s have WiFi now. I certainly haven't been on one without in the past few weeks.

Think Rowley Regis was "for Blackheath", happy to be corrected though

Whitlocks End is ‘for Dickens Heath’.
Thanks for the updates gents.

On the LNWR side of things, rebranding appears to have been completed north of Crewe, with Winsford, Hartford & Acton Bridge all being in full LNWR colours now.
On the Trent Valley route, Rugeley TV is now fully rebranded, leaving Nuneaton as the 'outlier' still with LM running boards & signage.
South of Rugby, Long Buckby, Northampton, MK Central, Leighton Buzzard, Kings Langley & Watford Jct still hold on to various bits of LM; Long Buckby, MKC & Kings Langley still have LM running boards & signage. Northampton and Leighton Buzzard still have their "Olympic Gold" running boards, but Leighton Buzzard now has LNWR signage.
The "mix" at Watford Jct remains unchanged AIUI.

From what I can gather 350403 is still with TP at present. LNWR have only received 350401.

Also 323210 is not PRM compliant

323203 and 323211 have had a poppy added at one end. Had both from BNS earlier.

I have been told that there are others
