I've heard on a Facebook group that when Weston's new streetdecks arrive, 33965-71 will be transferring to Weymouth for Jurassic Coaster work.
Was reading the same convo a few minutes ago. Guessing the MMCs are being released from the 1/2 thanks to COVID reductions?
There seems to be a lot of pieces missing though, such as what will happen with the remaining Excel fleet. The rest of the 56-plates are definitely off to Basildon to kill off Tridents/B7TLs, but I'm struggling to see where the rest of the E400s end up. The 12 plates and 63-plates will definitely be sought after by other First areas to remove older deckers.
Complete guess but maybe some of the E400s will end up with Cymru to finally retire their W and X reg B7s, or perhaps Eastern Counties or Essex to remove the superannuated fleet trundling around Great Yarmouth and Hadleigh? Do love a bit of speculation.
