There buses that have come from CT plus in Yorkshire to have maintenance done. Should only be a handful of MCT buses there now awaiting sale.

No green ones there, all the TFGM hybirds were returned to tfgm in April and are currently stored in Stockport bus station. CT plus’s livery is white.

Sorry to sound pedantic, even though you're both right. Many MCT buses were white but the hybrids leased from TfGM had a green and white livery, like this one. Below is a view at Stockport bus station.

Compound was looking very empty today. Just a white Enviro200 and decker, I assume CT+. No sign of any MCT vehicles.

Think there’s still a few dotted around but most have moved on. The depot is up for rent so HCT are only using it until someone shows some interest - suppose it’s better than it sitting empty.

Yes please they are the ones that I saw at Stockport, I made a mistake of saying compound when I meant Stockport bus station LOL
