Anyone heard rumours that the final LNR 319 which was supposed to leave by rail last week actually left by road yesterday?

Aside from the two awaiting their transport to Sims next week from Allerton, I make it just 5 319s still in existence:

319371 at Long Marston
319373 and 319441 at Castle Donnington
319377 and 319380 at Eastleigh.

Am I correct?

319011 was at Eastleigh for ROG but not 100% if it's still there.

Last report of 454 was that it was in static use at the Porterbrook Innovation Centre Long Marston.
Are there 3 vehicles of 426 still at Wolverton please?

Just seen a 319 pass through St Helens Junction empty under it's own power right now, but didn't catch which one exactly.

They have been swapping 769s around today so it's likely that. One needed to go to Newton Heath for some kind of attention . :)

Also glad to hear 011 still exists hopefully!

I thought 319426 was converted to 769426 but never accepted by the Welsh so remained at Wolverton as a 769 ??

would be good is @Class455 updated page 1 :)
You could, of course, always visit https://www.ukraillog.co.uk/fleet-data/emu/319 - I think I am up to date with this section :)
Held for preservation ?
I'm not holding my breath. I've not seen any sort of preservationists around for 319s and I'm pretty sure Reid's offer a storage solution so could just be a case of Kings Heath wanting it gone and Sims not being ready for it so Reid's are looking after it in the interim

That was certainly my understanding. Was it the one that was buckled in all the wrong places?
My records indicate that carriage 77340 went for scrap some time in late 2022 (I updated my record on 19/12/22) but the other carriages remain at Wolverton. Of course, they could have since been roaded out of there

Many thanks . I thought 426 was rejected for conversion because of the damage so presumably awaiting move to scrap.
As for 214 we'll just have to wait and see I guess .

I agree with The Train. I've 77340 as scrapped In 2022. Only 3 cars remain . Once that vehicle was deemed infit, conversion didn't proceed.
