Recent movements to Bury consist of 66872/3 from Oldham have lost 30802/3 to West Yorkshire and the Rotheram B7s slowly dribble in. Nothing else has left at this time

RE: First Manchester
30802 is still running? The engine was knocking badly last time I saw it a couple of months ago and I presumed it had been withdrawn to provide spares for the others.

Slight correction from myself yes 30802 is still running but will be withdrawn in the next 3 weeks, last seen on the 524 an 98 but is due to be in Leeds quite soon

Yeah seems likely not with it today,

Think 30805/6 will most likely end up there or Leeds 60218 all though not on the list is also likely to go over to Yorkshire as my Bolton source thinks it will, as for 30805/6 no point in leaving them behind as the whole batch 30802/6 still have life left
