Oh? So they never ran on the Central/Silverlink joint service?

Or to use your favourite website...
QuoteThirty of these units, designated Class 350/1, were built for use by Central Trains and Silverlink on regional express services and services on the southern section of the West Coast Main Line.

One you can always find is on the St Albans branch. 350s are banned from that branch so it has to be a 321

I wasn't sure, id seen pictures of them at Rugby and there's old footage of them on Birmingham - London but this is where my vague knowledge of trains becomes clear. Thank you anyway
