Cadet 148 has been re-instated, presumably in connection with them taking on the Chester-Northwich 82 from tomorrow. I know 147 has been reported with Coastal Liner, but no disposals seem to have been reported by the PSVC for the others.

Some of the withdrawn vehicles are still on site. On 13th October the following were in a line of withdrawn vehicles at the back of the yard: 125, 136, 148, 163, 181, 186, and 195. Also in the same line was 1 (YX12 AOF) which is understood to be owned by Centrebus.

Fleet list now updated, with 1 also returned to service - it is half-term in Cheshire this week, but I'm not sure if school work increases PVR or not. 
;
31-3 show as branded for the 82.

27 has been out for a few weeks. 26 and 28 due to be repainted into red, although one of the two was apparently out on the Alton Towers E1 contract recently.

Spotted a couple of Yellow Optare Versas from Bournemouth (including T20 TYB) in Longton this afternoon on delivery. Assuming they will be joining 26/27/28 at D&G in the weeks to come. On a somewhat similar note, 26 and 28 have been repainted into D&G red.

Centrebus have a pair too - I wonder if Peddle associated companies have the whole batch?

1 has also gone off the list again, but the Plaxton Centro has re-appeared.
;
I thought I had saved an old list to compare, but when I tried to open it the new one overwrote it, but I don't think anything else has gone.

T18 TYB and T22 TYB noted at Centrebus' Leicester depot, in the last week, both freshly repainted into company livery.

Anyone found a timetable for the new X41 Stafford-Alton Towers?
;
It makes me  wonder if the plan is to cancel it if there aren't enough enquiries about it?
