7 class 172 ex Chiltern on loan to West Midlands
I think that’s the current ‘official’ version, but there’s quite a few suggestions in other forums that they aren’t likely to be returning.

I should have said that there is some vynals with West Midland branding on the centre of each coach. I did a bit of work with Gimp to remove the one from the nearest coach. It is visible on the other coach.
