Twin Cars 1
Two of the class were "mothballed" at the end of 2004, 676+686 and 677+687, leaving just 5 members of the class. However, they have all had workshop attention in recent years and can often be found working on the Fleetwood service thanks to their high intensity headlights. All of the remaining class members were seen during the week and they all made at least one days appearance on the Fleetwood service.
