4042 was a DLA which left the fleet a few years ago. I'm not sure if it was ever at Southport (I don't think it was) but it wasn't an open topper

Sorry my mistake, just I'd heard some of the DLAs had escaped scrapping & were to be converted into open topped deckers.
Not sure if it ever happened though.

The DLAs converted to open top were:
4060/3989 - T110 GGO
4065/3992 - T305 FGN
4073/3990 - S243 JUA
4156/3991 - S286 JUA
4158/3988 - S288 JUA
3992 was destroyed by fire in 2016 and the rest are for disposal
