Thanks if anyone could help.

I've been informed that 2520-2524 are going to Rhyl. I don't know about 2499 or 2525

Are 2520-2524 any good?

2523 in my opinion is the best of the bunch, 2520/21 give decent rides but are two sheds at the same time. 2522 is knackered and been out of use for a while. 2524 doesn't go through the gears properly so usually stays local unless it's fixed before transfer.

2522 has not been out of use a while, it is (or was) on loan to Bolton only the other week

Yes it went to Bolton and lasted about 3 days and was back in the yard at Runcorn on the 9th and hasn't been touched since.
