From its distinctive sound, another one seemingly passed by around the midnight hour on Friday - another 398 delivery ?

Will there be another 398 midnight delivery around the City Line ?

How many Class 398’s are now at Taffs Well ?
Is the Taffs Well Depot close to being completed and therefore able to hold the 36 Tram Trains that are on order

From above 001 & 003 - 015 so 14, and no not near completion.
I believe 002 is at Old Dalby but have no idea if 016 - 036 have been built yet.
Maybe somebody could advise?

398002 is at Taffs Well. The only one I haven't seen there is 015 however it is there as I've seen pictures of it.
I'm wondering if the deliveries are being held off as the road to the depot and out side the station is still being worked on. The usual way of delivery looks to be blocked off now so they'll have to wait for the main entrance to be ready

Sounds too simple I know but there are rails into the depot.

A YouTube update on the depot from Mike Wilcox

Completion of the Taffs Well depot may determine when further 398’s can be delivered

Road passed the depot opened yesterday views are available through the fence of the units. All units 001 to 016 on depot as far as I can ascertain. 
Lovely day for it. Can't make it out in your second photo, has the road re-opened up towards Tongwynlais?
Have they started working on the Taff's Well station carpark?

I visited on Saturday and we positively identified 12 outside (all of the ones outside) plus one part way out of the depot making 13. There was at least 2 inside we couldn't ID. I did see 001-005 and 016 which had all arrived since my last visit in December

Which road is that to Tongwynlais? But the road right through the industrial estate is now open.
The car park is still closed.
I think it’s Bleddyn rd that joins Cardiff rd heading south.
