Aren't they supposed to be continuing with the additional capacity until it finishes in June as the New Mmcs currently arriving are due to release the Cambridge park and rides until then

10811 - SM66 VAO
10812 - SM66 VAU
10813 - SM66 VAV
10814 - SM66 VAX

May end up with some of the new MMCS Enviro400 from Gillmoss. Guess wait and see

Those fleet numbers will be used in the batch for Gillmoss (10811-10843) - just on different vehicles

Anyone know if the 10A might be treated to deckers during Phase 2 of the rails, or is it expected to be just the usual vehicles?

With the delivery of GM's own MMC's, I suspect these are being readied for the trip south to Cambridge.

I've just realised it's in the wrong topic, meant to put it in the Chester & Wirral one...but Chester's two orange ones (10807/10) did appear at Rock Ferry before heading to Gillmoss then Cambridge with 10808/9....off to Cambridge tomorrow, may see these although no pics of them on Flickr in service at Cambridge yet....maybe they're just not as dedicated as us lot up here lol!

Ta!

Also, even if some of GM's own are ready, will CZ/RF not still be using Cambridge examples on the X8 & 2 (and even 471/2) until the end of phase one, anyway?

Weather and other commitments permitting - and the weather is already looking doubtful - I may make the effort next Saturday (might get my last ALX400 on Everton football duties as a bonus), but if the Cambridge examples have already been removed from MSL service, I might as well leave it.

Just my personal opinion but I suspect when enough of M&SL's own are ready, I would think Cambridge would be keen to get theirs asap.....shall keep an eye out in the next few days to see if the Cambridge's are still sticking around....
