Fleet News Update - March and April 2020.

Updated: 09/05/20

I'd like to thank everyone for their patience following the cancellation of last month's update due to the passing of my father. I haven't been, pardon the pun, keeping track as much recently, so if there's anything I've missed in this update then please do let me know.

Also, I'd like to express my thanks to "158757" on RailForums with their help with updating the list of refurbished units.
