The number of class 350s carrying the older, and more attractive, London Midland livery surprised me on my visit to Headstone Lane on 8 June 2023. Most were the Class 350/2 variant, intended for suburban services but often used on long-distance workings, such as 350265 leading 350114 on 1U28, the 11:13 Crewe - Euston, better to photograph than to travel on.
