RAIL Magazine reports that a unit cascade will take place in the Autumn.
From GWR to LM - 153325/29/33/61/69
From LM to Northern 150105/07/09

The 153s are to be replaced in Devon/Cornwall by Class 150/2 from the Bristol area which will be replaced by Class 165/66.

Nothing new there, except perhaps the 153 painted numbers. The problem is 2 x 153 cannot replace a 150 on the Bedford-Bletchley.

According to Wikipedia, Northern will only have 319/3 and 319/4 but not 319/2.

Apparently 319004/5 and 319218/9 have been swapped for 319370/381/4/5

Northern have most of the class 319/3 since 319372 and 319373 have gone off lease.
