Previous Numbers : D3702
Status : Stored
Current Livery : Departmental grey
Pool Code : WNTS
Notes : Previously at Peterborough, 08538 left by road on the 2nd February 2004 and was deposited at Bescot, where, three days later, it was officially put into store. On the 2nd April, it was taken away by road from Bescot, unloaded at Hams Hall FLT the same day. Upon arrival, 08538 was reinstated to traffic and the WSMD pool.

Whilst latterly operating in the Cemex Stone Terminal at Washwood Heath, sometime during late April / early May 2008, 08538 left by road and transported to Bescot for repairs / attention.

On the 3rd February 2009, 08538 was stored WNTS at Bescot TMD. Currently, it can be found half way down in the yard, on the very far line.
