4384. 4385 & 4388 have all been rescued from Pensnett scrap lines.

4388 currently at WB is definitely for stripping.
4384 & 4385 are on decision at Miller Street, depending on condition could be stripped or reinstated

Tony

all of
4290, 4317, 4399, 4447, 4462 & 4465 are very unlikely to run again

Could be something as simple as tax and/or MOT expired

Nothing particularly, other than they need expensive repairs, so easier to pick them for withdrawal

Hasn't 4462 just had Price Branding applied?

If the bus is no good, a few stickers on the side isn't a reason to spend money on repairing it.

I didn't say that, my point really was why waste money on putting stickers on a bus for it to be withdrawn a few days/weeks after...

Well they wouldn't have been put on if it was known would they?

Is it just 2 being withdrawn? Unless they plan on increasing the proportion of double decks in the fleet in the future perhaps and more go?
What's likely to happen to 2246 anyway?
