I thought there was 10 left in service? Maybe 2030/31 to WN in Crimson?

There was, but two were withdrawn early. Up to yesterday there were actually only 4 left in service.

Don't  forget the two Levantes may finish

I thought 1 Levante was already out of use? Not enough work ffor them. They're contract fleet rather than main fleet.

The Levantes did school work which is a pvr as other buses need to do those school runs

Does the same apply for 731 & 732? Or where they never added on to fleet strength.

They came off last year with the loss of some tendered routes

I'm not sure whether 731 ever saw service in Dundee despite being repainted two tone green & sent back up from NXWM.

Even 4076? The smartest a president has ever looked! The only livery to suit it.

Thanks JIM C - presumably the two coaches also withdrawn?

Is there any update on repainting of the B7RLEs and E400Hs, or has that stopped now?

112 has been withdrawn since early Nov

JIM C

111 still in use meantime, and yes even 4076 is lying idle in the (graveyard).

5428 is the latest repaint after accident damage. apparently 1774,1775 are going to be training buses. The latter is very poor in power when climbing hills.
