It looks like some of the Versa's are at Leicester or nearly there, looking at Tony's changes for Arriva (3691; 3692; 3693; 3694; 3695 new to Thurmaston). The fleetnumbers follow on from the Oswestry ones, so I am guessing that they are Versa's also.

Yes that's right, they are the longer version of the 29** at Telford/Shresbury/Burton/Derby etc etc

The new arrivals SHOULD be enough to clear out the last step entry buses if Arriva chose. Heaven knows there are so few left and Arriva Midlands could be all low floor.  This means transferring older LF single de cks to Wardle and Telford to replace the Scania 34xx.  Unless of course Dart 2038 and Scania 3415 are being "saved" for preservation.
