Well 4555 has ended up somewhere different today...Just managed to photograph it at Salford Circus after coming off the M6. I've just been told this already transferred to Yardley Wood, so not sure what it would have been doing.

New vehicle orders and allocations won't be mentioned until officially announced, and as of yet they haven't been.

And it is definitely rumours being spread by someone inventing their own stories as no allocations are decided yet

Debranding of the 126 buses has begun, it seems. 6788's (and 6790's) rear done now.

It's for the jointly operated NXWM/Diamond 42/43 & 31/32 (due to relaunch this Sunday) only at present.

Imagine if it covered the 10...i would imagine a fleet of knackered Arriva Cadets/Commanders in the livery would give off a great image 😛

It don't think that'd wouldn't happen.
It was said its only on those 2 routes at the minute because both operators are willing to put the same number of resources (and the vehicles are the same age) on the routes.
Eg - 42/43 - 6 2012 NX E200 and 6 Diamond 2012 B7RLE.

If you notice, the two routes being done are where both operators are willing to put exactly the same resources into the joint operation. In both cases this means savings in PVR for both operators.

There would need to be a lot more negotiations around the other routes being mentioned
