Apologies if I have missed this upthread but have 202, 203 & 206 all returned to Hornsey now as well?

All the Red 387201 -206 had their GX branding removed (although you could see where it was!) whilst at Reading. Did 387207 -209 also lose their GX branding whilst working from Hornsey?

They’ve had it removed since being at Hornsey - during their use with GWR, they were used in exactly the same condition they were in since Great Northern released them…

I went past Reading depot today and there appeared to be one red unit still there. It was hidden behind a Class 769. Is that unit no.203?

Yes it must be 7203

I’ve been off for a week, so had expected it to have moved already but evidently not!

202 & 204 in passenger service on th GN this morning
And 205 and 206, saw the two of them at KGX this morning. Have any of 207-209 returned south yet? I saw 387208 at Kings Cross last night so that definitely hasn’t gone.

Hi 03_179 - I've previously had 210-225 as allocated to Stewarts Lane! Is this not the case as I was always under the impression that Lovers Walk was a Southern depot although I don't know much about that area to be honest?

387's are allocated to Brighton, Lovers Walk. Doesn't mean some don't get stored there. 455s are now allocated to Stewarts Lane.
