Wonder why one of these again and not one from Northampton?

To be honest, this move was booked around the Christmas Holiday period and New year's holiday period as mentioned upthread by another op, so still has its booked path to run on. Don't forget both A 319 Lnwr move from the 02 January 2024, and Even another Northern 319 move, from 04th January 2024, are both outstanding, due to situations beyond there control ie flooding and Newport Docks Simms flooding as mentioned in threads on here by ops. Don't forget see above a Northern 319 scrap move is still planned for Friday 19th January 2024. Whether its the last now one knows for certain at this current time.
However that aside what we do know is, after Thursdays 11th January 2024, 319 move.
There should be four final 319 scrap moves to go.
1. 319 Northern to Newport on 19th January 2024.
2. X2 lnwr 319 Northampton to Newport we hope. Unless rare gone by road. Doubt it. TBA
2. 319 Northern to Newport Northern 319 move TBA.

Presumably 369 is still at Springs Branch, and will make an ECS move to Allerton at some point prior to scrapping... unless the ROG 37 goes to collect it from there of course.

The final passenger service has run - on 2nd January. Not sure of the reasons, but Northern control have been told not to use them again, so game over.

This thread will therefore soon be locked, and another chapter closes.

There'

There's been a few on the forum a few months ago, but I'm afraid I can't remember which thread - might have been the Southern 455s.
The railways in South Wales group sometimes has photos. Mostly taken from passing ships. Sometimes zoomed in enough to identify units or vehicles.

Dave posted earlier about a move on the 19th but they seem to have one extra to take down now so perhaps a three train consist is on the cards.

Yup seems we missed it.

5Z85 1145 Springs Branch to Allerton. Today.

Sims don’t seem to have taken three-unit consists (except Pacers possibly) since the current round of scrapping started. I think they did when the slam-door units went there in the 2000s though.

319s both north and south are officially done, jobs up here that could use a 319 have been a mix of DMU and 331s but all seem to be 331s and 323s today anyway.
