Heard a rumour today that due to the recession no more 87's are being exported to Bulgaria. Any body know any more ?

hmm, interesting
Possibly more for preservation over here?
Where are they currently stored? Long Marston?

Correcto according to the BZK man that showed the PTG tour around Sofia depot on Tuesday morning. The second part is much more flaky - not sure if 87013/014 will see any use over there , we didn't view 014 but overheard its "stored", 013 is yet to have its Bulgarian mods prior to entering service.
