Now in store at Morecambe, joining up with 14199 again. 33170 still minus its bumper. Space was created with 33163 being driven out of the yard on trade plates over a week ago now...

Still parked in the corner at White Lund, so not looking good, seeing the said company has acquired ex Stagecoach 3 axle Olympians lately for schools and you'd have thought they may have collected over the summer in time for the schools going back. Unless they didn't win the contract it was...

They have 14201/2 as well by the looks of the picture. From my records, it appears then that 14203/7 are the only ones not to have escaped the Barnsley scrap yards although 14209 is unaccounted for. 14198 - Centrebus 14199 - Stagecoach (Kendal) 14201 - DW Coaches 14202 - DW Coaches 14203...

Down daily (for most of this week I think) from Carlisle and operating between Penrith and Morecambe for a major supermarket chain as some sort of shuttle. Confused some of the staff at White Lund when it came for layover as it was parked on the back fence and they thought it had joined others...

Been tipped off which one it is... didn't know we were 'short'...! Also, 3 lowliners confirmed to have been treated to the garish LMC rear adverts.

And odd, seeing Preston don't operate any 60 reg vehicles...

Involved in a RTA, which involved it having new panels on the front, so obviously decided to paint the whole lot!

Regular on a Saturday this one, happened for the first time last Saturday, presume its because it drops on to short 3's after, with of course the peak time dupes and schools not running on a Saturday.

Don't think it has, pulled up next to it. It was only up there a week so very much doubt it, being non-standard seating too, it would be a pain to do and most of the seats ain't in bad nick anyway.

Basically anything that a B10 used to do, with only 21007 seeing service today on a 42. X1's are now MAN operated, they are spare buses for low floor routes (2,2A,3,4,40). They also see use on the 50/5s and 42s with a mixture of deckers, the 6's when a Versa isn't available, one has even been on...

21004/5 are now residents on the back fence at White Lund, 21007 was over a pit today, leaving only 21003 as the only and possibly last depending on 21007's status as the last step entrance single decker at Morecambe (was on staff shuttles today). Also one of the 2280* MANs was parked with the...

no back fence still at white lund.

B10Bs still out and about today, mainly on 42s and staff shuttles, but all the B10Ms are sadly gone. More rumours circulating, regarding vehicles, which only time will tell if are true so not going to let anything go on here, lets just say could be a bit surprising.

Yes she was, I brought her back Weds night on the 940 boys grammar contract and it dropped on to that this morning. 940 bus does Catterall - Preston at 0704, where as the 941 runs dead between Catterall and Preston. No such luck tonight, a Trident and and 16661 again.

There is one of the branded Darts sat at Morecambe depot at the moment, 21007 is currently working an 89 at the moment. The decker would have been off Preston and been at fleetwood for the 68 Preston College - Blackpool run from Friday. Although it seems odd that Fleetwood in theory should have...
