But then downhill on Wednesday with three and even more today - although exactly what happened isn't clear from RTT

508139/141 have been working on the West Kirby and Southport services respectively since Wednesday.
Their scrap move on Monday has been postponed for at least a week owing to the dire unit shortage at present, so will remain in traffic for a little while longer

508139 has been withdrawn, its last working day was on the New Brightons last Saturday.
508141 was still working today on the Southport line

RE: Merseyrail
508139, which was moved from New Brighton to Birkenhead North in readiness for stripping was unexpectedly shown to be reinstated and allocated to the Chester services today, but whether is actually ran for part or all of today, I can’t be sure.
Maybe there’s still a little bit of life left in her!
Meanwhile 508141 was still shown allocated to the Southports again today, as it has been for a week now

RE: Merseyrail
All six units will stay where they are until there is space on Merseyrail.
It may even be after Christmas when they come!
There will only be 12 left to come to the UK after this
