Its already been said that only 2 Cadets are leaving has it not? No more Cadets are set to leave just yet once the EcoCitys go into service.

The new engine and gearbox is the whole reason it is still in service, along with the extensive refurbishment it received a few years ago that none others received while, co-incidentally enough, at Runcorn depot. It still owes Arriva money, or at least it did when all others were withdrawn, hence it has lived on :-) However its days are very much numbered!
