Default 83 stock at Cockfosters

On the weekend I had to travel to Cockfosters station , first time for
years. I couldn't believe it when I saw the pair of 83 stock trains

STILL
parked in the same place and looking virtually wrecked. Why on earth

have
LUL allowed them to get into this state? Or can't they be moved because
they've long since rusted to the rails? Judging by the faded state of

the
graffiti it seems even the oiks have run out of ways to vandalise them.
Isn't it about time they were just hauled off and scrapped (unless

someone
with some cash wants to preserve one I guess)? Why do they still store

them?

Still a train of 83 stock in Uxbridge sidings too.
