7669 & 7674 were still going from Bootle last week as well. Which makes if wonder if 7674 will also go to Yorkshire after all the work it had last year.

I rode 7634 last February, and this may well end up being the last ex-MTL one I ride. My Marshall fever is not over yet, as I can still ride them elsewhere. Indeed, I am about to ride a Go-Ahead ex-First example in Romford in March!

One of southports is earmarked for preservation?

Hope 7659 gets kept

Ok people lets run a book. I reckon 6/4 favourite 7656 is the last MTL bus to be withdrawn followed by 7625 at 2/1 the rest 4/1 bar. Place your bets please gentlemen and of course ladies!

I will take an outside bet on 7674.

Would have thought 7675 would be the preservation candidate with it being the last bus delivered new to MTL. Last i heard it was stored still intact at Chester.

7634 still going strong in St Helens - out on 33's this morning.

No need for a photo-finish on this one!

If you're gonna preserve a Marshall Dart, take the best one.
7656 wins!

Beastie 7674 still going strong today

Of those left, 7654 is the best one by a margin for me so I hope that one gets saved.
