With 5 of the ex Swindon Streetlites now in service, has 8334/8335 finally been withdrawn along with 8313?

No, unfortunately.  Sunderland were found to be 2 vehicles short of there spare capacity so 8313, 8334 & 8335 remain in service.  However 8347 has been withdrawn due to defects that were un economical to repair.  5522 - 5525 are due to transfer to Riverside depot.  5524 is already there.

8348 now at Deptford, so all ex Swindons now in service
