Contrast in front ends at Chester on 1st February 2023 with nearly forty years separating these two designs. 150101 is a long term member of the Northern Rail fleet whereas 197019 was only introduced to the Transport for Wales fleet a few weeks earlier. This was a National Rail Strike Day but TfW were operating normally and the 197 was about to depart for Liverpool. 150101 would not be moving until the following day.
