I don't understand why 158s that were displaced from Transpennine Express should be used on the Liverpool to Norwich route, which is much longer than any of Transpennine Express' services. Someone once said that the Liverpool to Norwich service was the Central Trains service that is most likely to be delayed, which I think is justification for using 170s on that route.

Some of the 158s that Transpennine Express had were in need of replacement seat covers, but with some going to First Great Western which were upgraded and others going to Northern, it may be that the one's which Central Trains acquired are in good condition.
