Don't think they were Wessex examples as I don't think Wessex had any 59 plates.

Avonmouth & Keynsham are the Wessex depots of Rotala.

Not sure for definite but I was under the impression 3 were purchased 2 for wessex and one for us, I may be mistaken though as nobody else has mentioned any others.

PM

To clear this up, 3 whippet centros purchased all off the busway services. 2 going to wessex, one staying at diamond as a replacment for the eclipse2 at long acre that has also gone to wessex. So this bus is not an unusual working/from wessex etc its just a 59 reg centro in service before repaint

Whats happening to the 301 though?

Nathan4775

Thanks DD, and most likely timetable changes
