RE: Arriva Rail North
It's been reported on Richard Clinnick's (RAIL assistant editor) Twitter page that the following units will be joining the Northern fleet when released from their current operators: 23x Class 150/1 (GWR and London Midland) 5x Class 156 (Abellio ScotRail) 8x Class 158/0 (Abellio ScotRail) 16x Class 170/4 (Abellio ScotRail) 12x Class 319 (TSGN) The Class 153s, 321/9s and 322s will be leaving the fleet as well as the Class 142s, 144s and 323s |

So the Northern franchise will get its first 170's then and quite a sizeable amount at that. |

I would imagine that the 158s will be 158782/86/96/867-71 which were destined for Northern some years ago but "borrowed" by Scotrail and never returned. All time rail mileage travelled 327264 miles |

The 158s will be the Angel Trains ones which were originally intended as going to Northern as the Scotrail agreement shows them going off-lease. |

It was originally expected Northern would get up to 29 x 170s but Transport Scotland have decided Scotrail need 13 x 170s than was allowed for. Question is could Northern finish up either getting 185s or getting other trains released as a direct result of TPE releasing 22 of their 185s? |
