Hello
I can't see a thread for listing disposal or reuse details of Class 153 - but mods please merge with an existing thread if there already is one.
I was wondering if anyone could confirm which 153s have actually been scrapped, and where/when if possible. It's interesting that it mostly seems to be former Northern examples that have been scrapped so far.
Are there any Sprinter preservation groups out there who are likely to preserve any other examples?
I've listed the disposals I already know about below, colour coded as to their previous operator (Green=LMR, Red=EMR, Purple=Northern)
Thanks
