Don't know how long this has been the case but from what I saw today it appears that the destination displays of the Wrexham fleet have been re-programmed. Summerhill and Minera now have welsh versions and some of the other destinations are more simple. Buses on the 7 and 8 simply state Bus Station and switch to the welsh version.

The last AirCon MPD is now out of use at Wrexham as noted this weekend, 879 Y39 TDA parked in the compound. 872 Y32 TDA has been pulled out and dumped next to the workshop, looking to be losing parts.

One of the 9xx 51 plate examples was parked at A.N. Richards at Froncysyllte on Sunday, assumed there for MoT, could not fully ID due to recovery vehicle parked behind to hide part of the registration plate, any idea to which one?

Just up the road at Dee Valley Tyres at the joint yard at the Smithy Service Station was 849 Y549 UJC, assumed there via a visit to A.N. Richards.

Bit of a contrast from the double deckers isn't it? I wonder why they'd put a bus that small on a high capacity route like the 1.
