The two at PN were still there as of yesterday.

Yeah, those two have been there a while. I presume there is an additional one I'd forgotten - 4045 which seems to have made the journey south. I guess further sales through the Green Bus may have taken place too.

I have 4042 down as returning to B'ham (TGB) as well

Any reason green bus was selling the president's rather then NX bus

Just checking my own notes/the Dundee thread I can only see 4043/45 as recent returnees - but its more than possible 4042 has returned too (and I missed it!).

4044 is usually always the bus that operates the the 844.

Ellie Rose have painted the red front ends yellow. I do think they look good, just a shame some still have the connection bars and part of NX logos remaining

It has a buyer, another operator, but needs some work before it leaves Hockley
Now 2 years since its withdrawl, is 4023 still at TGB, Hockley? It was said last year 4023 is going to another operator, is this no longer the case?
