Temporary Replacement for the 313

Hi all,
Does anyone have any ideas what I can use as a replacement for a 313 on ECML South? I am currently using the 455 as a replacement for the 317 as I prefer higher quality cabs and aren't too fussed what the outside of the train looks like.

Many thanks

I use the Thomson 455 just because of the sounds and cab, It feels the closest thing.

I'm using a 3-car 317, but that's more for AI than the player train. The 455 is a great train to drive though.

I am using the class 317 for both the 313 on ECML and also to replace the 315 on GEML. Also done a BR scenerio using a class 37 +Mk1 on Liverpool St. to Norwich service, using 415 unit to replace a class 302 and a class 303/506 to replace 309 made a copy of the TSO from the 506 unit and changed the coupliers to the same format as the 303 and added the TSO to 303 to make a 4 car unit although the colouring is different not to bad for AI traffic.
