4506 still hanging on, on the 127-9s today

I wonder what'll happen to the 03 Geminis at WB. Is it 4503-5? Go back to PB or come to AG I wonder.

2900

I,d guess the remaining 03 plate gems would go home to Perry Barr to join the rest of clan, berry Barr I guess would move on some ALX 400 b7tl,s to Walsall.

Don't you start.
