GBRf 66749 was used to drag Set BN23 and DVT 82226 yesterday from Bounds Green to Worksop for storage.
GBRf 66718 has today taken Set BN25 and DVT 82216 to Worksop for storage.
Not reported here is that 91102, 91112, 91113, 91116, 91118, 91129 and 91131 are now in storage in Doncaster Decoy Yard.
LNER have made reservations compulsory. No seats are being allocated but they are asking passengers to keep two rows of seats empty in standard class.
91110 has returned to service due to IET Shortages.

91102, 91113, 91126, 91129 have gone to Newport for scrap.
I would be very surprised if LNER don't remove any motors that may be in fully working order from locos that absolutely will not see service again.

It's only so that if further locos are reactivated they will be running on all 4 motors instead of just 3.
