All the scrap has been cleared in the last few months or so - there's one scrap B12B remaining and a couple of newer coaches that are out of use I believe. The nearby McGills depot already has Prentice Westwood signage up as of Saturday.

So far I've not seen the new lettering on any Bristol vehicles, all the ones I've photographed in the last week have had First Somerset and Avon legals, including today. Maybe only the country fleet has been done so far?

66120 is supposedly moving later this week, and apparently hasn't had any windows smashed as of today. Meant to be going to Cardiff I think if I've remembered that right. Was very briefly at SGBC but not at all related to 1910. At my last count there were 13 buses at Muller Road 4 Marshall...

Interesting, I wasn't aware of the age being specified - Wessex used much older vehicles on the routes I'm sure. I'm assuming the contract has changed? That sounds like a likely plan though, more Solo SRs in Bristol then :roll: Wonder if the Dart will be sold, go elsewhere, it be used as a spare...

Does anyone know if CT Plus' DP1 is still there? If so I wonder if that might be used on some of the new stuff they've picked up. Just a theory, nothing backing it up

30857 is Bath has been painted white rather than cream, so I expect something could be gained from 32017 being cream

Forgot to actually post the link to the photo I took of 30117 https://flic.kr/p/PWK8k7

YT61 FEO/M also with Hallmark branding. Got a photo of FEO just a minute ago and will post it later

http://www.nigelmccree.com/index.php/for-sale/buses/item/798-2006-plaxton-primo-dda-28 Looks like 57000 is for sale on the same site as the Tridents and B7TLs

January it had its accident believe it or not! http://m.bathchronicle.co.uk/pictures/Pictures-damage-bus-van-collision-Wellsway-Bath/pictures-28570549-detail/pictures.html Nice to see the W reg B7TLs are being sold on for further use (and some presumably to stay as only half have been...

38005 is now at Crosville, Weston Super Mare

The swap is basically arranged and minor work has been done on 66110 already, the swap should take place this weekend. 66104 had quite a bit of work done to make it into a trainer so it was easier to start with one that was less broken :lol: On another note, does anyone know the situation...

66104 has been withdrawn for a while, however I can't say at this time whether it will be that one or another member of the batch (66110 is the best option currently) that will be preserved. Either way, one is secured and has been payed for so a BOU is safe! It is a little confusing as First...

I haven't seen it anywhere on this thread yet but I have posted it on FirstBus Enthusiasts on Facebook, 32023 has been converted to DDA compliance! New ramp, wheelchair area handrail (just about an inch further into the aisle!) and stop button sound (buzzer as well as the old bell). Apparently...

32686 and 37626 (I think - certainly was a 3762- B9) out on Severn Express today that I noticed, didn't see any of the branded B7TLs. 42898 on 5 too. I've also noticed 47439 and possibly 47449 seem to have had a new exhaust fitted which makes them sound quite different - and it also comes out of...

39192 out earlier on 72, haven't seen 39191 for a long while now however.

They will be dual door I have been informed. And the picture seems to show a LWB E400MMC, does anyone know if that will be the case? As that would easily at least make up for any lost capacity with the second door.

I could be wrong on the Streetcars, not entirely sure about those. I might have misunderstood and what was meant is that they should be scrapped - but won't actually be scrapped.

Just to clear up a few questions if I may: I don't think any vehicles will be heading Bristol - FHD soon 34167 will be staying at Weymouth. W reg B7TLs in Bristol will be converted to DDA and sold apart from apparently 32003/6 and maybe others - not 100% sure. I have seen a few PAEs with new...

I've been told it's heading to Hampshire, so not just yet. Still a while away yet... In other news, something (can't say what yet) should be heading up from Hampshire to Bristol for Balloon shuttles... --- old post above --- --- new post below --- 42643 is at Lawrence Hill, going to a school...
