[chriscowley100]

These two have been out of service for a while now at Midland Road depot-but have recently been allocated into the DFHH pool.Does anyone know when they are due out?,thanks Chris.

Noticed via web groups that 66507 is now back in traffic-but not 526 as yet...

 

[66526]

I thought 526 was already out and about?

IIRC 66526 has either gone abroad or is due to go abroad I am not 100% im sure someone else will be to confirm/deny my suspicion

No that was just a rumour. A post on wnxx confirmed it is to stay in the UK and was just awaiting repairs. On a TOPS list I have seen 66526 is in the DFHH pool at Midland Road with status X for exam.

Pheeew! Had me worried then Dave!!
