Are they being fitted while at Saltmeadows for repaint or at a later date, assuming they haven't been fitted already

Still have 5234-5238 going round with the WiFi symbols on too, despite no longer having it.

697 - 700 were fitted with Wi-Fi while they were at Deptford, ahead of the service changes taking place on 19 May.

Was a slight change of plan with 697 so this one didn't join Percy Main along with the others - the reasons for this will become clear over the next few weeks - but either way this one doesn't really need Wi-Fi any more.

The NEB fleet list is in the process of being updated (shock horror - what else could I be doing on a rainy day?!) so details of these will be included when I get round to that bit.

There's been a change in stance on the feature symbols so these will eventually be removed from the full fleet. They should, at the very least, have had the ones on the side windows removed, with the harder-to-reach ones on the front destination display not being removed yet. Judging by photos on Flickr, it seems 5235 has certainly had the ones on the windows removed.

Not spares as such, they're allocated to the Nexus-secured 23 service.
