No, it is still around but currently out of traffic at Southport awaiting the wheel lathe.Has 507 011 been scraped?
Do you know when it will?No, it is still around but currently out of traffic at Southport awaiting the wheel lathe.
507011 has been out of action for a while now, from the 4th March to the best of my knowledge. It may not end up getting repaired given the limited time the 507s have left.Do you know when it will?
Paths are already in for the next scrap move as well;14/21 28/33 11/15 off lease by early may

No, the first of those is the loco coming to collect the 507s, the second is the scrap move.Wait 2 scrap moves in 2 days?
So it takes 2 days?No, the first of those is the loco coming to collect the 507s, the second is the scrap move.
Loco arrives the day before, overnight at Birkenhead North, sets off first thing in the morning for Newport.So it takes 2 days?
Do you know what units it is taking?Loco arrives the day before, overnight at Birkenhead North, sets off first thing in the morning for Newport.
Ok I'm going to ask when will 011 get scraped hoping you know?I would assume if the units listed in an earlier post today are in order it would be 507014 & 507021
This list is also in agreement with when these units were last overhauled.
Wait so will they all scraped together?14/21 28/33 11/15 off lease by early may
No, they will go in 2's as a 6 car with the loco (either straight to Sims in Newport or via Crewe South Yard) over the course of the next few weeks.Wait so will they all scraped together?
So 011 and 015 are going together?No, they will go in 2's as a 6 car with the loco (either straight to Simms in Newport or via Crewe South Yard) over the course of the next few weeks.
Most likely according to the list provided earlier.So 011 and 015 are going together?
Ohh do you reckon it's being sent to a museum?Most likely according to the list provided earlier.
Edit: Although I have heard something else maybe planned for 507015.
Great, so they fix the fault on 507021 and then send it for scrap!I would assume if the units listed in an earlier post today are in order it would be 507014 & 507021
This list is also in agreement with when these units were last overhauled.
"Very clever" WHATS THE POINT ON THAT?!!Great, so they fix the fault on 507021 and then send it for scrap!
Not a museum, but Merseyside Fire & Rescue are to receive at least two driving carriages of a Class 507. 507015 reportedly is/was earmarked for this purpose and if so, it definitely won't be leaving with 011.Ohh do you reckon it's being sent to a museum?
no, 37800 can’t even manage taking two never mind 6Wait so will they all scraped together?
i know what your on about mate i’ve heard the same, my guess would be a crewe south yard for that oneMost likely according to the list provided earlier.
Edit: Although I have heard something else maybe planned for 507015.
507021s been crap for months, quite a few of them are in a diabolical state thanks to stadlerGreat, so they fix the fault on 507021 and then send it for scrap!
Remember 01 and 03 are running on Branch Line Society special sometime this summer. No date available yetIs there much chance of anything still running by June, or is May expected to be the end of scheduled passenger service?
