Does anyone have a storage location list for the units recently sidelined from Great Northern?

Thanks

Really helpful list thank you.

Can I please check one thing - 365526 is listed as scrapped. I understand that 65960 and 72291 were blown up at RAF Spadeadam; and 72290 was cut up at Booths Rotherham (in GWR green!). Is 65919 still in existence though?
I have very little information on that unfortunately. I will certainly add the info you have shared here as I was unaware of what became of this unit and if anyone can help with 65919 it would be appreciated :)

There was a unit or a pair of units at Letchworth today, I couldn't see the unit number as I could only see the side of the train.

The Combine Volume for this year has it listed as awaiting disposal at Wolverton works.

Belmont is a new destination for these I think?
You wouldn't happen to know which unit(s) is on 5A23 at the moment please?
Guess Crewe might be full (or they're going to get a refurb at the Plant for a new life :D)
According to RailCam the units are 516 & 524

Last pic I saw of Crewe South Yard, it looked pretty full. Or maybe Worksop are doing some rejigging to fit them in there and this is a temporary move until they can head off to there? Or, as you say, maybe off to Wabtec for a bit of conversion work - it's the in thing at the moment to convert units for freight use and there is already one earmarked for that so it's possible more will be.

Anyway, thanks for the unit numbers :)

365534 & 514 are the pair currently at Letchworth, both with pans raised for the first time in a while.
Thank you, from their location at the time I could only see the sides and not the front or rear.

Can’t be true, surely; one or two 365s moving to Derby?
