No idea, as long as 672 takes to be refurbed I guess

You could try X51/51 route Wrexham-Rhyl or 12 Rhyl-Llandudno, both seem to be heavily Enviro400 routes these days fromn what I've read on here.

Admittedly, I'm a rare visitor to the principality but I was there exactly 6 months ago. Then virtually all 12s were indeed from the 4536-55 batch for which most are branded,. whilst 51/X51s were older 'ABW regd. examples - again mostly branded appropriately.

When I was on the 12 yesterday all were from that batch I’m now down to 3 4649,4651 & 4653

I can agree there, on a number of Saturday and Sunday visits to Wrexham, I have noted DB300s on each occasion of late, probably as they are more suited to the terrain compared to the J-ABW plated Enviro400s.

I did noted a Solo on a X51 Sunday turn a few weeks ago.
