It is out of service, together with the double decker according to my informant, who says 8 and X546GGO are withdrawn.
;
Centrebus 248  was running as XIL6081, but its original mark YJ54BTV is showing as live by the DVSA.

X546GGO/X246PGT are not withdrawn, they are used as and when required and WA09FHK is still on fleet

Yes; as it's a TfWM tendered service fully within the TfWM operating area.

Thanks, I just wondered as the Network West Midlands website say they don't. Must be for Staffordshire services that they don't accept them?

Busman Jamie

Nbus isn't valid in the Staffordshire boundary anyway

Yes, I know but the other Select services that travel through the Nbus area to/from Staffordshire don't accept them unlike other operators such as Banga and their 891 who accept them as far as Tettenhall.

I was only repeating what my informant told me on Thursday - he was quite specific re withdrawn and out of service.
.
Subsequently I read in buses that the Solo had gone to High Peak.

Seen in Stafford yesterday one of the ex Centrebus Darts with a mixed livery, Select front end/Centrebus the rest, didn't catch reg or fleet number.
Seen in Stafford today new fleet no 8 - LN 03 AYL in full fleet livery.  This bus is Tbs Dart SLF / Tbs B37F.  It was first registered to Trustline, Hunsden 07/2002.

The ex Centrebus SPD in mixed livery is SK52 OKE which has a fully Select painted front complete with fleetname but Centrebus orange / blue/ white remainder. It's been running on the 12 Doxey service this week.

Surely they'd paint the whole bus if they've painted the front?

Yes, but why didn't they paint the whole bus all at the same time?
