All 10 have been refurbished by Thorntons of North Seaton (Ashington) to Sapphire standard. At present, only 4 are in service - Blyth are using 1524/5 (3113/4) to cover for 2 of the Geminis being off for engine work while 1532/3 (3121/2) have entered service at their intended home of Durham depot as additional vehicles to cover while work on Milburngate Bridge is undertaken which means increased PVR on services in the city (56/57 increased by one and running stand alone, 64 also gaining an extra vehicle as have 22/24 which are interworking for the 7 weeks of the work, the X12 also has an extra vehicle but this and one of Durham's normal boards are being worked from Stockton depot).
