It's listed on the Worcester depot allocations.. Hasn't been on Leicester for 5months now. It did last track in Leicester but as far as I'm aware it left with the orange ones (35153..) (35152 being fuscia)

Midland Red net forum says 35152 is at Worcester awaiting a new engine.  :smiley:

Ex cymru & trawscymru E300 67431 is now at worcester in trade for streetlite 47470 marking the return of E300s in worcester,

permanent transfer apparently, with more to come

32644 has been withdrawn, meaning there are now no barbie buses in public service with first
Local routes are the PN 7, WN 8, 25 and 242 (mainly the 8)
Also regularly use the PN 2, PN 2A and WN 82
Local rail station is Stourbridge Town, 139s 😍

Indeed; it has certainly had a good innings. 32644 was the last of the 'new to Leicester' Wright Eclipse Gemini in service with First. 32628 is still going in Essex but, despite serving in Leicester for a while, was actually new to Northampton.

Is this the corporate livery for all First fleets.

Anyone have any idea when the rest of the E400's will start moving over from SY to replace the StreetDeck's? 
Also when the last 3 E300's are due + more E200's from Wales?? 
Wonder if there are any plans to get the ones already here repainted into the new corporate livery - Would look good on them me thinks!

Hi willr7,  --  a knowledgeable guy on facebook says more E400s coming from up-north soon !

Does anybody know where 35156/7/9 SN65OKH/J/L have gone?

Interestingly they have disappeared from the trackers/Bustimes entirely.

My first hunch is that they have gone into the NewPower programme (First are repowering 32 StreetDecks to EV, remember), but otherwise I'd expect them to go to Bristol/West of England if not.
