7652 was noted yesterday in Halifax, working on service 36 out of Halifax Bus Station

Are any Marshall's still in service in the region or have they all been withdrawn now?

7636 and 7654 still soldier on in Southport.

Really? Wow. I thought they had all disappeared by now.
RE: The Ex MTL Marshall Darts 7601-7676 - B10B6514 - 10/09/2014 16:14
And they are still alive and well. Just been on 7654 and I feel it would be a shame if it went for scrap. Any budding preservationists out there?

One has been preserved, 7656 iirc

I know was just being a little cheek. Seriously 7654 is a nice motor.

Is 7654 rattly though like most of them?

Hardly a rattle to be heard last time I rode it. A fantastic bus - and it's not often you can describe a Marshall Dart as that. Out of all the batch, 7654 and 7655 were the best and it would be a real shame if they were both scrapped. Never thought much of 7656.
