Going off reports this weeks are 37401, 37424 plus one other. They are also quite random in their repaints as 37369, 37417 & 37418 were the first to be done then they jumped back to 37303, 37372 & 37390. Anyway, the small fleet numbers at the front make it harder to identify which is which. Will keep my eyes peeled tomoz.

thats how the West Yorkshire B7s have their front fleet numbers

Dont think the system is that random, they are coming across as some sort of logic.

I identified it side on and yes im sure as anything that it was 37425 also I saw 37401 last week on the 8 mid week

I can confirm that 37425 has not been repainted. Saw it this afternoon over the pits at BN still in the old livery and branding (snow flakes and all). Thought it must have been a quick repaint as it was out on Thursday on the 37.
