Preservation Information
153334 was the fourth Class 153 to enter preservation, though as was common with many second generation vehicles it was not to be in the traditional sense.

Bought by the Ashville Group from Porterbrook Leasing in June 2024, as part of charismatic director Daniel Ashville's vision for his new railhead facility in West London.

The company has a reputation for making online content about a previously secretative construction industry, so it is likely further updates on 153334 will be forthcoming.

Future Plans
In a video published in June 2024 Daniel Ashville explained the future for 153334 was movement to the Ashville Aggregates site at West Drayton followed by interior conversion as a reception space.
