323227, 12.37 Allerton Depot-Wolverton Carriage Sidings (5Q36, 63E), Ashton Road bridge 
 Both Northern Trains' and West Midlands Trains' Class 323s are undergoing a refurbishment programme at Wolverton works. This involves the units being driven under their own power to and from their bases along the WCML out of areas that they operate in. Running over an hour early, an event that nearly caused me to miss the train as I had not noticed this until checking on RTT after coming back from shopping, meant I had to shoot straight back out again! 323227 approaches its journey's end as the 5Q36 12.37 Allerton Depot to Wolverton carriage sidings. Whilst the three-car unit still wears its familiar colour scheme it is devoid of all branding. During its sojourn at Wolverton, it will receive, among other modifications, new seat covers, an interior and exterior repaint, the installation of a new passenger information system, wheelchair call-for-aid buttons and the addition of an accessible toilet in place of the original small toilet cubicles. Many of these changes are a requirement of the PRM (Persons with Restricted Mobility) legislation.
