There were two moves today involving a rake of HOBC wagons plus 76501

Fairwater - Wembley and then Wembley to Dollands Moor. Worth keeping an eye on as they may be off away to Europe through the tunnel...?

These, apparently, were indeed supposed to be for export, but have been returned to Wembley yard this morning...

Looks like they're booked back to Dollands Moor this evening on 6B61

Do we know if these wagons and machines have now left the UK? Not seen any more sightings or reports since end of November?

Yes, they have. Went over on train 4008 on the 25th November. I've heard both that they're for permanent export and just for refurbishment. Does anyone know the correct situation please?

Appears to me two similar topics covering HOBC movements connected with disposals and similar. This and HOBC moves. Perhaps worth combining.

Looking through the website a few which probably need updating.

DR92263 I understand was scrapped at Tyne Yard in March 2019 so the November 2019 sighting is suspicious.

DR92303 - DR92322 have been exported, see Dan's post.
