	British Rail Class 158 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Class 159 units are almost identical to 158s having been converted from 158 to 159 in two batches.
		The Class 158 is not based on the Mark 4 bodyshell design, although the latter was developed at roughly the same time.
		The current Class 158 fleet consists of eight former FNW units, the ten ATN metro units, 2 former Central Trains units (still in Central Trains livery) and 2 units on hire from Arriva Trains Wales (also both in Central Trains livery).

		No class of locomotive or multiple unit numbered over a thousand examples, so the last three digits were used for the individual number (between 001 and 999) in that class.
		Locomotives are assigned classes from 01 to 98, with diesel locomotives assigned classes 01 to 69, DC electric locomotives between 70 and 79, AC electric locomotives 80-96, departmental locos (those not in revenue-earning use) 97, and steam locomotives 98.

		The fragmentation of the British Rail network has pushed up costs as each company in the chain adds its profit margin on to the charges which are passed down the line (pun intended!) to the TOC's.
		As an example the 2-car class 158 diesel rail cars which British Rail bought in 1990 for Â£1million apiece are rented at about Â£500,000 per annum.
		Timetable paths etc are agreed between the various TOC's, freight companies and Network Rail in an ongoing process (with the fallback of an independant Rail Regulator in the case of disputes), and then the train operators pay Network Rail for the use of the infrastructure.
