But nothing going back to Bolton to replace the Streetdecks?

Plus they will need a replacement for the burnt out citaro, but with the loss of the 171/172 last week that should free up a few buses.

I'd have expected the early 19-reg examples to be the ones to leave Bolton, as these were the ones typically used on those routes.

21206 and 21209 arrived at Bolton from Tividale yesterday, for repaint, before moving on to Preston.

Photo's of 40725 and 40726 have appeared on Facebook, of them doing rail replacement services in the Birmingham area.

I've since answered my own question as apparently these Streetdecks are allegedly supposed to be joining the former Johnsons Excelbus fleet when the takeover finally happens as the only 2 deckers Diamond are getting from them are the Optare Metrodeckers as Johnsons are apparently keeping the MMC400s either that or the MMC400s are going back to the leasers.

Does anyone know what 20885 is tracking as I assumed it was using 20404s ticket machine when it was 20016. Also appears that 32211 & 32220 are now Eccles vehicles

Wonder if this is anything to do with Burnhams plans to bring forward the capped fares with franchising ?
