November Website Update.

After a number of months, I have finally got around to updating the site!

The Northern fleet list has been updated, with a number of Class 150, 156, 158 and 170 units having received digital modifications (fitment of WiFi and USB charging points) since the last update. In addition to these, 195109 has been named Pride of Cumbria.

In Merseyrail news, 507006 has departed for scrap. No further Class 777 deliveries have taken place, although it is understood a large amount of units have been completed by Stadler Rail and are pending delivery. It is unknown when these are scheduled to restart.

Class 319 conversions have continued, with GWR's order for nineteen Class 769/9 units now completed. 768002 (ex-319009) has been converted for Rail Operations Group, with 319441 also destined for this operator in a similar role. A second HydroFlex unit (799201) has also been converted, with 319382 being the donor unit.
