@Matt.N0056  as has been mentioned on here that the Preston Bus hybrid Versa's are coming off lease does this include all the ones at Redditch do you know?

wonder if that's where the streetlites will be coming
from

40540 & 40543 have both arrived at Preston Bus, assume transfers, but unusually still in Diamond Bus livery.

I think 1 maybe 2 of the WF streetlites have returned to Bristol with 2 DFs now at Redditch

Is Trident 40544 still at Redditch or has that joined the other two up North?

There was a silver/red DF Streetlite on the 36 today. Looking very smart it was, complete with Wessex trading names

I thought the deckers were used on the same school services

They may well be, but it suggests RH will need replacements unless the schools work is being withdrawn?

Okay seeing as no one has asked the question or mentioned it are those deckers even DDA compliant?

As 40541/2 have already been repainted & transferred up to Preston over the last couple of months I would expect so

Yes we still have 1 decker

Ex Wessex Streetlite WF 20974 MX60BWU is now in Diamond blue livery. It's on the Asda service today. Also the 2 ex Wessex DF Streetlites (30528-SK63KOA/30529-SK63KOB) are out today on the 57/58 (they are still in complete Wessex livery with fleetnames etc)

Diamond WM Hybrid Optare Versas are all due go off lease by April 2017 and I presume it includes exPreston 30131 as it was part of the 12 plate batch and not the 61 plate batch like the other 6 that were new to Preston. I have been told this info by Simon Dunn.
