RE: The Ex MTL Marshall Darts 7601-7676
After doing some googling came across this article from 2007 which involved 7617

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/6441219.stm

It all adds up in a way as someone on flickr claims that a mother and child haunt it and considering the fatal accident it had this could well be true...

It was 2007 a 70 year old and her 50 year old daughter were hit by it and ultimately killed. I remember when at Runcorn many drivers didn't want it as they felt spooked..

7639 is parked up withdrawn at Canning Road and, very surprisingly, 7652 transferred to Speke today.
