They are Go South Coast buses in Bluestar livery. They are still operating from Lymington, mainly but not exclusively on schools. I think Lymington is still managed from Poole rather than Southampton as far as I know. Hope this helps.

10 new trainers for the fleet.

Ah that’s a hell of a shame, I was hoping they might see a few more years yet. Proper heavyweight single deckers are becoming a rarity, far superior to awful rattling Darts. Meh.

Makes sense about the trainers upgrades as they are all at least 20 years old. But shame to lose them from service at 14 years old.

I count 36 on the fleet (according to the Bustimes.org fleetlist!), so losing 10 of them is a shame but, for the time being at least, I suppose that still leaves a fair few in service. Rather surprised the Omnicity’s aren’t going first, they’re getting positively ancient - I suppose being deckers they’re considered more worth retaining.
