I've just asked the question in D&G enthusiasts group on Facebook and a reply was given 'Gone to Shrewsbury' so maybe the new Hotspur contracts require new buses.

Could the deckers be running the Delamere Forest Live Shuttles in Cheshire between Northwich & Delamere? I spotted 36825 YP67 XDA in Hartford. 1781966990 36828 YP67 XDD & 36825 YP67 XDA spotted at Northwich Interchange on Delamere Forest shuttles today. Spoke to a driver who confirmed...

They have appeared at Macclesfield depot, as 5023 & 5024. (Photos taken from Centrebus, Chaserider, D&G and Select bus enthusiasts) on Facebook. Facebook Group

This is true, however Crewe clearly has outgrown itself, and maybe it's the time for D&G to look at somewhere else for the Crewe Depot. The old Arriva Depot is still at Winsford Industrial estate, not sure of the current asking price, but then again this is an additional cost for D&G, and makes...

Indeed things seem to be moving again, 1N54 Manchester Airport to Blackpool North is waiting to come onto WCML at Euxton Jn on its way for Preston.
