I would say 2427 has worked it's last from the photo I saw recently, seemed to have a fair bit of damage to the rear.

2416 and 2422 are Withdrawn at St Helens

2479 is also Withdrawn but am not sure if its still on site at Runcorn

2417 is withdrawn following MOT expiration

Thanks for the updates guys. I've updated the list

I thought 2438 and 2441 were also withdrawn?

Not Withdrawn yet, Saw 2441 on 05/08/15 and am sure i have seen 2438 recently as well

So, not many left in service now. It is interesting to reflect on how they have been replaced indirectly by new double-deckers.

I drove 2419 at Runcorn a few years ago. I was a newly qualified driver...boy was that thing quick but the brakes were shocking lol
