On the main picture of 1677, Tony has it as sold on 8/16, so I've gone with that.

On a similar theme, I had withdrawn 1646 on my notes lingering around for ages - but it seems it was sold for scrap on 7/15, does anyone know who to?

1578 is another that vanished unrecorded, it and 1646 are the only Mercs I don't have a disposal for. At the time they both went all others were heading to PVS so wonder if its safe to assume these two went the same way??

Speaking to a YW Driver, 4041 which was involved in a collision in Solihull roughly a week ago, he mentioned its been "decommisioned". He stated parts have been taken off.

YW's Plaxton population is almost non existent !

I can't see 4089 returning to YW somehow. And I doubt the other 3 will last long...

4031 & 4066 are latest inmates at Pensnett.

687 is being held for possible spares for the preserved one at Aldridge
1427 is being held for possible driver training use.
I believe preservationists have shown interest in 1589/1647 whether that comes to anything is currently unknown

Just been told 4105 has been withdrawn.
