16.02 down / 17.24 up Frankstons were Hitachi worked again tonight. Sorry I wasn't able to pick the number as we crossed the up at speed in the dark!

Already given up on the panto trick, Gwiwer?

37-1979-36-110-1910-42 has one Metrovick (on 37M) and Faiveleys on the rest.

And I thought it was just my hair standing on end 
In the past I have used this system to exclude a set from a distant sighting , identifying a particular set by its pantos is a great idea Michael.
I am often stuck in traffic and sight a Hitachi hundreds of metres ahead going through a crossing and frustrated that I cant see the numbers.

I saw 144M-1919T-9M-233M-2007T-23M heading down to Frankston on Monday 25th (it would have been scheduled to depart FSS at 8:17).
At the time, I hadn't seen any reports of 23M being sighted since it left Newport. I now see that it was sighted on the northern group on the Friday before.

7M now has connex front stickers, looks ok. The other carriages of that set are getting them soon.
Looks like 7M will be leading when it gets back in service.
