Coaches 111 & 112 .are now in Dundee, in all over white.

4111 /4103 ARE THE LATEST WITHDRAWALS.

wasting no time in moving the presidents on, 4057 ,4083 have they been sold for scrap or further use , don't know much about willenhall commercials are they chop shop ,dealers etc

In Dundee 4116 has been withdrawn ,but looks like its being sold on .

4116 now withdrawn

Met tony for the first time yesterday .he and another driver were just entering the garage with 4715/17..so I went to say hello .

my mistake ,4110and4116 were ment to be scraped . but they did a body repair to 4116 ,and 4110 is being striped for spares . 4715/17 arrived today so another 2 presidents will be withdrawn soon.

4110 Is a scrapper and 4116 was accident damaged ,but now repaired .Its got a notice on it saying no parts to be removed.so it will going  sometime soon .

4053,56,4115 have all gone to a buyer in Ireland .

4053,4056,4110,4115,and 4116.All withdrawn from today .hoppers and ticket machines all taken out of them .

Just seen what looked like an ex Travel Dundee Solo in a yard near Laurencekirk station, possibly with an operator called Nichols? No idea which one it was.

Nichols is owned by JP Coaches Forfar.whom we have sold a good few solos to .Probably up there for school contracts .

Tony, will the Dundee presidents get scraped or sold on when the geminis arrive?.Its just that some of them are still good buses to drive and scraping would seem such a waste.

looking at it ,its the windscreen and destination glass,but with the immanent arrival of the cascades they might not bother .it was in the bodyshop over the  weekend but came out untouched.

I looked inside today and could,nt see any internal damage to it ,but mind you 4110 might be a donar if its going back into service .

Yesterday, 431 and 434 were out.

433 had accident damage when I saw it in the depot yesterday and 435 was just sitting at the back of the fence, never saw 432 at all.

its m o t time for the streetlites . 433 has not got accident damage the side panal is off for wrights to inspect something under it .

@JIM C - I thought 4116 had on received a broken windscreen?

looking at it ,its the windscreen and destination glass,but with the immanent arrival of the cascades they might not bother .it was in the bodyshop over the  weekend but came out untouched.

4110 Starting to get striped of parts .4116 Accident damage might not be worth repairing .
