I visited Winsford depot today. After a quick look around the depot, I asked if any of the office staff knew about what service DAF/ALX400 4025 was on. After a look on the board, they told me that it was "a bit rubbish" and has been sent back to where they got it from...!

Palatine P943 MKL was also due to be picked-up for scrap within the hour that I was there.

Photos to follow tomorrow...

3346 and 3349 have not gone for scrap at all, they are in service at Bangor having replaced a couple of less desirable Olympians.
