Maybe this is why it hasnt been stripped. |

RE: The Ex MTL Marshall Darts 7601-7676
Can anyone say are any of the following still on the road plz: 7627/28 7644/7647/7673. These have all worked around the macc & winsford areas in their lives & out of the bunch i'd personally say 7673 was the best & 7644 deffo the worst! |

I think 7647 has been withdrawn and is again at St Helens. Thanks!

Are you sure it wasn't 7625 as that was placed back in service a few weeks ago after being withdrawn from Green Lane. |

7628 still sat in winsford next to 8223. It's had some parts taken from it, but other than that - it's still in pretty good nick! |
