That's because they were still available to use this morning if required.

1938 has also been withdrawn today after engine failure. 1848 which was due to retire from Walsall will now go to WB to replace it.

If you look on Bustimes you'll see which ones are still in service

4519 and 4523 last of the BU53 Geminis now

1/3 of the non euro 6 vehicles were withdrawn at the weekend, so now down to 10

AG: 4500; 4651; 4656; 4657
WA: 4566
WB: 4519; 4679
YW: 4567; 4570; 4586

A power switch on at YW will kill all 10 almost immediately

How long will 4523 live, considering it's Euro 6?
