Some of the technical material still needs referencing.
The statement about some remaining on the GE needs verifying (an Old Ian Allan allocation book?).
On privatisation I imagine ownership of the units passed to one of the ROSCOs and they were leased by LTS rail. UPDATED 27 Janaury 2020

The last point is understood, it is common for every class that was operated by BR at privatisation and dosn't needed talk page links in the article. Murgatroyd49 (talk) 20:32, 25 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure I entirely get your point Murgatroyd49 - and the misunderstanding may be mine. What I would like to see (and this applies to every BR and post privatisation class) is a record of how their ownership passed to whichever ROSCo it was at the time. However I do not have any records myself so I posted the last point in the hope that someone somewhere might be able to provide that information.--Davidvaughanwells (talk) 00:24, 27 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

ROSCOs are first mentioned in

Fox, Peter (1995). British Railways Locomotives & Coaching Stock 1995. Sheffield: Platform 5 Publishing. pp. 186–7, 335. ISBN 1-872524-72-9.

and this shows the code "SAT" against all class 302 units - SA is Eversholt Train Leasing Company, and T is London, Tilbury & Southend franchise. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 15:36, 27 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

With regard to ROSCo have checked to confirm for Angle to be the same ROSCo for the last 30 class 302s years 1996-1998 Fox, Peter (1996). British Railways Locomotives & Coaching Stock 1996.
