Oh I don't know

"The entire fleet of Junipers is to be "refreshed" at Bournemouth T&RSMD over a two year period. This work will feature CCTV, new seats and tables in first class, an internal repaint and on units not already modified installation of RVAR compliant lavatory and door lights. Whilst being refreshed the units will also undergo a C4 overhaul which involves removal for inspection and replacement if required of wheels, axles and suspension - the ride quality of Junipers having been criticised since new. It is expected that each unit will take a fortnight with one unit being done at a time. The pilot unit for the refreshment is 8006 went to Bournemouth on 10th December 2007 and returned to Wimbledon on 17th June 2008, so taking much longer that two weeks. The second unit to go for "refreshment" was 8010 on 28th March and the third 8030 on 12th May. It is anticipated that 8015 will be the fourth. "

Well as I know zero about these units, I searched his morning, and came accross that site.
Then seeing as I've been messing with the eng files all morning ( lights, brakes, power, sounds,cabview, coupling distances etc)
It just seemed a good idea to run a test run out of Bournmouth Traincare depot.

Great shots, a fine set of units from Anton! To detract slighty, video evidence that they have come off their usual teritory!
