If they were do to something daft, my prediction would be them ending up on the 47 or a split between the X5/X15 and random spares at Washington.
Sensible option would be 6362 & 6363 to Washington for the X1 forming the PVR of 14x alongside 6364-75. 6376 spare with 6333 as another spare too.
Then for the following:
- X21 - 6331, 6332, 6356-61, 6377
- 47 - 6308-13
- X5/X15 - 6045-48
- CON Spares (Euro 6) - 6064, 6350, 6351
- CLS Spares (Euro 6) - 6314, 6333, 6334
- Riverside (extra spare & 1x extra for 58) - 6043, 6044
