Given that they've come out of store at Long Marston to Hull Docks, they will probably be used for spare parts for the others, I would have thought
All six Class 86 were loaded aboard the MV Hoovliet at Hull Docks and left yesterday.
86234 and 86235 are being prepared foe service in Bulgaria at Koncar Depot in Sofia. It was thought at first that these two locomotives were for spares only.
