I take it, this is connected with the loss of 4601 & the Trident that went up in flames over Brownhills recently?

Has 4572 been withdrawn?

it was but its been towed to Wolverhampton and may receive an engine from one of the withdrawn tridents. Tony did say it will be reinstated to Wolverhampton if all is ok.

It had a whole new engine last year, seems a waste if it was withdrawn not even 12 months later.

No it didn't have a new engine last year. The reason it was initially withdrawn was the engine had gone

We have engine repair facilties at Wolverhampton, the vehicle is in good condition so it was bought over to have the engine repaired rather than changed. It will be back on the road soon. This allows them to withdraw something in worse condition.
