Yet another 175 currently on route to Widnes for refurb this evening. So expect 175005 back in Chester around midnight.

Don't know what unit is on 3B75. But as 003 and 007 are the only two cars not in use at the mo, I guess it'll be one of those.

I can see that 003, 004 and 008 are in service today, so unless the first 3 car went in last night (which would have been 109 as that was the only 3 car not in service yesterday), then 007 is now in Widnes.

So the only class of train at TfW that we haven't seem in TfW livery yet is a 150? I'm not counting the Pacers or Mk 3's as they will soon be gone

Kind of, the 170s are technically in Greater Anglia livery and the Mark 4 carriages are in Virgin Trains East Coast

Which 158s still retain Arriva livery as of 14/03? The list hasn't been updated since December. I spotted 158835 on the N Wales coast yesterday, and a cursory search only reveals maybe two other examples, 158820 and maybe 158831.

Just 819, 820, 835 as far as I'm aware. I think 831 might be having its refurb (inside and out) done now as it hasn't been in service for a while.

Not the best photo but 175007 (left) is in Chester Depot wearing TFW red. Only 004, 008 and 003 interior only to go

There was a Long Marston-Canton move on 27/3, which presumably was 153361 returning, anyone able to confirm?

153361 was certainly out yesterday on a Manchester to Cardiff run so its definitely back.
Worked 361 today on another Manchester and to confirm it was the 27/03 it came back as the Chrysallis Rail/ROG/Porterbrook sign off and fitness to run slips were still in the cabs.
