70018 appears to have received some attention (wheel turning?) at Cardiff Canton, but while now moved to Maritime, appears to remain sidelined.

158885 is understood to have moved to Bournemouth to be fitted with a ZF Ecomat gearbox. The update, at first on one car, is expected to take three months and will be tested on the Swanage Railway.
