Cotswold to sell Class 31's

[Humberside]

According to wnxx, Cotswold Rail have bought 47715 (currently at the NRM) but have put 31452/31461 up for sale - I guess they wetrent suited to CR's operations. here these the only Class 31's CR owned?

And what does this mean for their class 33 (forget the number) which is at the West Somerset Railway - does it too have no future with CR?

Also 47338 is going for disposal

did cr actually use the 31's or where they in storage?

I personally can't see it boding well for the 33

According to Spooner over at the wnnx.net forums Cotswold are keeping the 33

Used when 47s weren't available for whatever reason.

Have been used a few times on trips from GL to Long Marston. One even made it to Loughborough with a powercar.
