apparently is if 34079 doesn't start working!
was looking into 34079's lack of wheelchair accessibility last night. it did have a wheelchair ramp in it (supposedly powered from the drivers cab!), but then it was involved in an accident with Merseyside. the wheelchair ramp wasn't refitted when the front end of the bus was rebuilt.
34079 before its accident, with wheelchair ramp on. (not my picture)

Seems odd that KL are messing around with moving stuff up and down! Also interesting how they took the F reg and not a H reg..

The only thing with 33169, is that it is VERY bouncy!! like a Pacer on wheels!!

While on the subject of 33***, latest rumours are that our remaining 33's (33163, 33171 and 33172) will be leaving at the the end of the month, to be replaced with ?? The influx of double deckers could be something to do with the college extentions to some routes from September, which will require extra vehicles and capacity.
16352 still plods on, 16669 is an additional Chorley vehicle here on holiday. At least 16639/69 has been given Preston blinds, however 16638/20794 have been carrying boards.
