Looking good. Any idea when the Wessex Trains Class 153 entered service wearing this livery?

[Joel Dapol]

I would think around 1999 -2000, but am not entirely certain.

[JeremiahBunyan]

Thanks Joel, that means it was around in the EWS era?

Do we know when the new 153s will be hitting our wallets?

Could someone give an update on the new 153s

Thanks

Hello Ian, production is scheduled to be completed next month. So with current shipping lead times I would estimate in shops around the beginning of August. The situation from China at the moment though is extremely changeable and these could move but are the best estimates we have currently.
