Does anyone know where 6687 currently is, as the show at the NEC finished yesterday?

It's still under Alexander Dennis's control, so I would imagine it will be driven straight from the NEC to Scotland once they dismantle the stands

Cheers Jim, I assume all the 54 Plate Gemini's are still useful capacity wise. So other than making 1481 a permanent trainer, there's not a lot else they could remove from service.

It seems both Dundee & NXWM still have too many single deckers.

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