We're here to help (within reason)! So, is there any class of multiple unit that you're particularly interested in?

Spotlog lists units that have been scrapped within each class list.
Simply select which class you are interested in from the list on the left.
Link for class 315 which shows various units cut up at Sims and Booths.

Reported 325013 has gone by road for scrapping at EMR Glasgow
This just seems such a waste. I understand that they don't have a conventional interior layout, but surely it only makes sense to make further use of 28 and 29 year old EMUs, espescially as there are still so many trains 10 to 15 years older still in daily service across the network.

What would you use them for? They have no seats, windows or indeed passenger doors.

There’s also a train database created by dedicated members of the forum: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/14nT4XBiztzcyNSRklmhxGC5BW2i8Ll4inXG-3ZSnUKI/pubhtml#

I think an issue might be that most of the older trains in service are DMUs or London Underground trains? Thinking Sprinters and Turbos (Not sure if this is right!)
