Vehicle was withdrawn after last day of use as below, stored at Poplar for over a year, before being sold to Wombwell Diesels, near Barnsley, Yorkshire for scrap in September 1972. The collision damage to the offside front wing, visible in the photo below, may well have been a deciding factor in the decision to scrap rather than export this vehicle.
