Has 318 gone back? or do we have a gigantic 10 153's now!!!!

Not sure... Doubt 318 would have enough power to leave the region

153 318, a scruffy red unit, was on the 1244 PLY^» to PNZ and 1450 PNZ to PLY return this afternoon running at least 11' late with very unhappy passengers complaining about its condition.

318 is a wreck.

I had it from Dawlish Warren - Paignton a few weeks back.

Bear in mind it was a peak hour working and was on its own it was full and standing. Many seats were taped up with black and yellow tape when I was last on it.
