I can't see that one happening anytime soon 2017-19 is when the new CAF EMUs are due to Northern meaning the 323's would be displaced by Arriva Northern.

323s should be displaced by the first wave of new EMUs; the leasing company wants them to move to the West Midlands franchise as soon as possible.
Don't you start.

Which I'm sure I have said above as April 2018, as per the ARN restructure / fleet modernisation program which has the lease end dates of all stock which is leaving the franchise.

Is that knowledge from which two of the three are currently at Tyseley, or guesswork?

Based on puerly what I have seen before and photographed I did hear though from a driver on the Snow Hill that the 1827 off Birmingham Moor Street should be 153/170/150 but never had that before but the driver may be spinning me a yarn

So you don't know which of the three is currently on the Bedford Line, so pure guesswork! Anyone could have just posted two of the three LM 150 numbers.

The three 150s have two diagrams one on Bedford-Bletchley and one Birmingham New Street-Hereford, none are booked for multiple working or into Snow Hill

The third set had been working vice 172 following the fire incidents, I don't know if it still is.

It'll actually be 150105 which is at Tyseley or 150109 which is at Worcester. 150107 is down in Bletchley tonight
