I believe 8250 and 8251 are, or were, being used for engineering training purposes. 8254 was dismantled for spare parts while at Washington, so I'd guess that these three will (eventually) be sold for scrap.
I believe 8253, 8259 and 8260 (when it's withdrawn again) will all be sold on as runners, presumably to Ensign.
