All I notice is that the old Northern stickers have been patched over and that's it. Saying that, Arriva (GC) haven't pulled their finger out with regards to the GC class 180s either apart from their first class. Still tatty old First moquette all over in standard and heating that doesn't turn off in the summer.
There was never set to be any radical changes or improvements; much the same as when any other franchise ownership changes hands.
Units are continually being refurbished with the addition of DDA-compliant toilets, addition of PIS screens with associated auto announcements, etc etc etc...
