The 9 new Scania's that are due, all of which are now in Preston Depot, are for Preston and will enter service following a launch in Preston during the 1st week in July. I am not aware of any other Scania's that will be on the move.

As it was me who had the sad task of cancelling all the Ribble registrations and resubmitting them with Glenvale, I asked the same question to my boss and was told that one Ribble licence (ie disc) would be retained .

MAN's are for Southport schools and 109/113 and there are no plans to sell Fleetwood.

No, LCC conditions state you must give change so the drivers have a float and they also issue change voucher tickets

Chorley are now operating the 113 interworked with the 109 to compensate them for losing the 337,347 and 114

Stagecoach have built 2 new depots (mainly outside parking) each of which will hold 500 buses)

Brilliant news, but it was new to Ribble at Preston rather than Cumberland and first operated in Zippy livery.

Preston are operating 2 dup's to cope with overloading by Newman College students, one of these uses a Scania that goes onto the 10.00 2X2. One of these has been registered as it only dup's part of the route ie does not dup the Bolton - Chorley section.

or how about the new 555 deckers with and without the swoops. Are you going to be the next Ray Stenning of Best Impressions ?

It is 16352

No, it means what he says that they are not going to be used on 3's:wink:
