Where would they go?

Scrap or sold. The delay in the Gillmoss MMC's being released has thrown a spanner in the works as these were supposed to start movements of buses. Once the MAN E400's are on the road at Hull then some stuff will start moving also.

So more mmcs due at Mansfield
Heard 27182/83/92/93 and 27200/5 we’re going back to Mansfield for 24195-200

Wouldn't this imply 4 of the MANs would go to Hull, and remaining 2 to Grimsby as they currently operate 27200 and 27205 at time of writing?
== Doublepost prevention - post automatically merged: ==
19633-5, 8-40 will most likely stay in WGY
Those in 19621-19632 in WGY will probably also keep to WGY
Other than 19622, the others will probably get either the orange or purple Consortium livery, seeing as there is no purple ones with 19307/8 being withdrawn now.
I dont know for sure but seems most logical
27200 and 27205 will come to Hull before the swap as Grimsby don’t maintain MANs
19636/7 may be orange?

But 27200 and 27205 are in Grimsby. 27205 has been there since 21266 has blown its engine. And 27200 is temporary until 19377 has been repaired.
Yeah, to be fair, those ADL/TransBus Enviro300s do have Euro 6 engines, which means they can run on the 141 and the 53, as they meet the environmental regulations of both Nottingham and Sheffield. However, they will most likely only run on the 141. I believe 24197 has already returned to Hull on the 16th of September, which lines up with 27182, last seen tracking on the 15th of September. So, I'm guessing those two were the ones that swapped. They will be returning to Hull and not cascading onto Mansfield local routes, as Mansfield was trained on the basics of repairing the MAN 18.240LF ADL Enviro300. But now that has stopped, so if a MAN breaks down, they will send it straight to Hull for a swap. However, I believe they are trying to swap as soon as they can since they can't even repair the buses at Mansfield due to the engineering part of the depot now being shut.
Believe 27200/5 are going back to Hull to prepare for the swaps

What would Grimsby get if the swap happened?

Nothing. 19377 should be out in the coming days

Why were coaches tracking on SCEM routes yesterday evening. I get other SCEM buses from other depots but not other regions
BODS (Bus Open Data) can be funky with tracking; it tends to happen at night. BusTimes.org also uses that dataset.

The Vix system has a data upload about 10pm Wednesday night. That always seems to throw some fleetnumbers off on bustimes

All of Grimsby's Volvo B7RLE Wright Eclipse Urban's are in the depot including 21256 (from over a month of withdrawal). And could 19207 be withdrawn last ran 7/8. Also is 19210 in Lincoln as a loan or is it permanent transfer?

19210 swapped with 10536 which broke down outside Grimsby Town Hall

Diversion in place for services 3,9,10 & 20 as Grimsby Road is closed for a RTC ( i think)

19210 went lincoln as per requirement for 10536 refusing to start at town hall, 19210 should come back today or tommorow , most likely dead run or on 53's on monday. and the volvos are being sold so theres no point of running them unless required and we're also low on buses yay

My guess is 19106 & 107 OR the whole “Upgrade” to hybrids like what the Skegness ones had
Skegnesses hybrids maybe
