Two: C33 (currently closed due to maintenance) and L07. A new paint hangar (C39) will open soon, making three A350 capable paint hangars.

Nice to see 3 A350 active (on FR24) on the flightline (MSN8, 11 and 15), rate 3 at FL now! MSN18 is not far too.

A fuselage barrel of MSN43 was waiting at XFW yesterday for transport to TLS so I assume this one will be on the FAL soon

Well the last update we had about 1 month ago msn 34 was being loaded into station 50/59.
I would assume all would be back to work now after the 2 week break. So if we get an update this month from those who know I would say by the end of the month msn 37 will be in station 59. So you can definitely see msn 43 going into FAL by October and getting to MSN 50 by Christmas time.

Can someone tell me if production is going on all year round or is there a shutdown during the summer months and at the end of the year?

Earlier this week MSN 36 was seen in S59 so MSN 37 parts would start arriving next week.
