Although it seems odd that Fleetwood in theory should have plenty of spare vehicles, especially on Sunday with surely the odd Versa would be spare.
20128,31,33/540,4 now withdrawn on the back fence at White Lund. 20547 on 55A's today, appears to be only one or 2 of the new Enviros out working 3A, the 3 being worked by Eric & Ernie and 16661, usually down to high student numbers.

Wonder if they take the LED blinds out of 20128 and 20131 and replace them with older hanover blinds?

I hope they do!
I also hope the LEDs came out of 20876 before that departed...

Dallamlad · 12th June 2011, 19:34

I imagine the LED's will be removed. Be interesting to see what they stick them in. 16666 is an obvious choice but that would involve panelling over the side and rear blinds to match the rest of the batch.

For those who are interested here's an example of an ex London Trident that Western have converted:

They might stick them into the lo-liners that are staying and just buy the side and rear blinds.

Anyone know if this is still in use?

Solo 47494 has lost its Preston North End vinyls and is now in plain Stagecoach livery. I'm sure Preston North Ends relegation to League One has nothing to do with the removal of the vinyls

WOULD CUSTOMERS PLEASE NOTE THAT OUR FARES IN THE CUMBRIA AREA WILL BE REVISED FROM 19TH JUNE 2011.

Most single and return fares will be changed, with some simplification of fare values. This will affect most routes throughout Cumbria, but not within the Barrow town Megarider zone, or the Carlisle City Megarider zone.
Most of our popular Dayrider and Megarider products will be unchanged, but those in West Cumbria and some in the greater Carlisle area will be revised in price. The ever-popular range of Explorer and Megarider Gold tickets will remain unchanged.

cainebj · 13th June 2011, 15:26

22608 was short 302, replaced by 47061.
16870, 20473, 20910, 20994 and 35246 on 30/31.
20902 normal X5's.
Trainer coach 52268 (RBZ 5459) doing some staff shuttles.

mbonwick · 13th June 2011, 15:43

Sounds like LLs allocations were just a touch out today then

First time I've heard of 52268 being out for a fair while...

cainebj · 13th June 2011, 15:48

Just been told that 15684 is currently driving around Kingstown Ind Est in Carlisle, being driven by a Scania mechanic.

Paint was fading near the top of the rear too! Some red was coming through, but nice to see it out and about!

Three MAN's on 300/302 sum up today really - a little unusual!
.... especially when I've just been told that 22608 was on Sellafield 85!!

16124 is the latest Oly to have gained a front LED (was rather overdue one!)

Dallamlad · 13th June 2011, 16:33

22826 is back from repaint. Front display is so dirty you can barely see the destination and the seats still have the old trim on them.
