The blue on 319450's doors is much darker.

Perhaps the visit of 319219 + 319218 to Lime Street was part of the preparation in advance of the units move to Wolverton Works which is imminent.

That is what I was thinking.

319450 has been moved inside Allerton Depot to the bay furthest away from the operational tracks, still in the same condition as a few days prior.

319450 is rumoured to be entering traffic shortly. Not sure exactly when but with 18 units for 16 diagrams it can't come soon enough!

I think it (319450) needs to be converted into bi-mode unit before entering. However either 319218 or 319219 can hopefully enter traffic soon.

Why? No reason it can't enter traffic as it is. Drivers and Conductors will probably need a brief on the differences between a 319/3 and 319/4. 218 and 219 are due to go to Wolverton, they need at least the door control modifications.
