I noticed that 7123 had also been moved at Miller Street and had markings for PVS.

It's sad to see 7123 there - it was repainted in 2010 yet never ran in service again.

A lot of barking mad decisions were made around that time regarding refurbing certain vehicle types volvo B10B,s insane, some B10L,s never made it back into service or had limited time in service.

Looks like Miller Street has had a major clear out, it's the emptiest I've seen the top yard in a long time.

Hi Tony, off out early next week for a chase down of anything old! Do you have an "at risk/soon to be withdrawn list" please?

I reckon three, probably four types are now so threatened and few in number it's pretty obvious they fall into the above category!

When 7123 was in dundee it was one of the better B10Ls .but it was transfered with the scanias arrival ,and as you said done up and no place to go .Surely some of these decent buses could be sold on .
