@BN @Tony given the raft of withdrawals from the Trident and Gemini fleet, how safe are 4535 and 4679? As both are heritage liveried buses, you made informed decision for their longevity at the time they were painted, though given their age and dwindling type, what's their long term future prospects?

I'm hoping they'll be around for years to come!

4535 is Euro 6, so reasonably safe for the time being, 4679 is not, so needs to be off the road by January 24th 2024

Is 4651 in the same situation as 4679 (I seem to recall that like 4535, 4125 is Euro 6 as well).

It's Euro 6? So is staying for now as Tony has said!

Thanks @Tony - I'm presuming 4780 is also Euro 6, but given the next batch of electrics is 300 vehicles, this would result, as well as Scanias finishing, most of the Euro 6 up to 4780 or beyond may be replaced (I'm aware you may not be able to confirm future plans currently)

Is it possible one of the B7RLE from Coventry may replace 4651 in the heritage livery?

I think one of the E200 at Coventry replaced 4453?
