I think it was 362 that came out of warm store to scrap

 

[Islineclear3_1]

No, it couldn't have been because the train left Parkeston at 09.00 and arrived at Clacton Depot 09.56 - well after the move to Sims - which as posted upthread was 361 and 362

Thanks, I have not seen much of that unit in real life or on youtube and I was wondering if they sent it off lease.

Is this to send a 321 for hydrogen conversion as it is going to Wabtec?

 

[3973EXL]

321365 quoted for component recovery!

 

[Islineclear3_1]

So nothing to Sims this week then by the looks of things

only the front one
other was a refurb 321/3

Another reminder that this thread is to discuss withdrawals not discuss units that are in service.

Thanks

Actually I don't think Sim's at Newport has had any 315/317/321s this week.

321427 (with 317337) on ilford to witham test run this morning

 

[Islineclear3_1]

That'll be a great one to photovraph, presume it's the 317 being kept warm?

 

[class321]

321427 (with 317337) on ilford to witham test run this morning

I saw a video of it on youtube, the 317 is most likely being sent off lease.
