4221 started first time today and rolled its,wheels for the first time since 2019 today!!

I had 4221 as sold for preservation - assume that fell through.

But no more of the older Wright Eclipse Urbans, those ones are the 'later' Wright Eclipse 2 models.

They *look* in good nick so I wonder how many will have new lives as trainers, not necessarily with NX? Probably too old for potential electric conversion.

They could go for further service with rural operators! (Assuming there is any left of course?)

Who's says it's been withdrawn? As it's been allocated to the 11/11A today baring any issues found in garage.

I thought they stopped using Eclispe Mark 1's on Sundays anyway for ages, well before the withdrawals started?

(And when the pandemic kicked off, those didn't come out originally, due to the reduced number of buses needed. Only 1773 came out eventually, to replace an injured 2125!)

I presume it's 1761 just left merry hill on an 11.
