Good evening Twitter, Soho depot and Hunslet are proud to be able to show first photos of 323221's transformation. It was hoped that 221 would be available to enter service on Friday, unfortunately the paint has not cured enough to allow the release of the unit.

Hunslet heard that some work had been done to his beloved grok. The look of surprise and happiness, when he found out that the depot team had named it after him. Well done Hunslet@

Apparently people don't use trains anymore. Full and standing.
@CrossCountryUK
, a 2 car 170 just isn't acceptable. Weekend travel needs to be catered for better.

Hunslet was tasked with doing the weekly checks on his gronk. When he opened the cab door on his gronk this morning he found his nameplates placed on the cab floor. A very happy Hunslet.

I think it was all too much for our Hunslet as it was stimulation overload.
I think Hunslet has had a wonderful with his friend Benji.

The depot team arranged for surprise party for Hunslet with pizza, samosas and cake.
Hunslet was also given a leaving present, which he opened when he was sat with his beloved Millsie.

Hunslet's manifesto would be
Compulsory jaffa cakes with all tea breaks, Tunnocks tea cakes to be provided free at all railway depots, baths for bears to be optional and only when decreed to be really necessary

Hunslet's friend Chris saw how not even a Class 37 could cheer Hunslet up, so headed to the secret depot jaffa cake stash to get the emergency pack and to give Hunslet a hug.

Today is Hunslet's last day on depot 😪.
Hunslet found that his main jaffa cake stack was empty, so decided he would go around some of his other secret stash locations to see if any were in there.
