WNXX says they're being repainted into BB livery at Bristol Barton Hill by Arriva Traincare.

I’ve seen a picture of 901 nearing completion today (not mine to share unfortunately!). Looking very smart. Not the first time there has been one in these colours though. Hopefully they will head back up north at a reasonable time of day so I can see the end result in person.

Reported on gen sites that 20901 & 20905 will be showing off their Balfour Beatty livery on tomorrows 1300 0Z20 Bristol Barton Hill WRD to Barrow Hill LIP

Very nice, what are they likely going to be used for?

Reportedly going to be traction for Balfour Beatty's drain cleaning train, which is based at Rutherglen. This has previously used a pair of redundant dynamic track stabilisers as motive power.
