The future of the stored class 321s

[adc82140]

As we know, many class 321s have gone directly to scrap. However there are a few examples stored at Gascoigne Wood. What do we think the future holds for these? Why were they not sent straight for scrap like the others?

Possible ideas:

More parcels units?
More hydrogen units?
Parts donors for the above two?

What do you think?

Can we have a list of the units stored please? I think there is a list on another thread so would be useful to have here so we know what we're discussing

From the other thread it's
321402 321405 321408 321432 321439
321443 321444 321445 at Gas Wood.

Anything still at Worksop or Wolverton I consider to be part of the hydrogen project.

I'd love to do some sort of Top Gear for Trains, where a railway version of Jeremy Clarkson fitted jet engines to a 321 for an extremely flamboyant speed trail.
