What has been salvaged so far? A strange move given the quantity of redundant B7TL's in the fleet at the moment. I recall 4210 even being at the bodyshop stored pending disposal? A more appropriate candidate for cannibalisation, surely. I can only assume components on the elder examples are different in some way mechanically.

Well 4123 has 4209's engine I think so can't be too different in that area
