Looks great, it has new seats right? I think it had for a while but can't tell in the pictures. All it needs now is CCTV! Any idea whats next to go up?

The seats have been re-trimmed for ages and it should be 22813 for repaint and retrim once they have repaired the floor in 47017 which had a big hole near the back wheel under the lino.

22817,22825 and 22826 to get the white roof treatment unless they doing them proper this time, instead of rushing like they did when the swoop scheme came out.

B10M's are slowly getting treatment, but I think that all of LL's remaining b10m's should get proper de-greasing clean inside and out, as these look to be be the final generation with us! I like how its progressed from Mossbay Metals to a bomb for 34079 haha!
14234 on annexe. "Egremont 22" on a scrambled Bright Tech, "85 Sellafield" on board in windscreen.
47005 just gone on there a few mins ago as well, with inspector driving.
14258 sat at Moorclose stand at 1155, loading passengers.
47616 on 50.
a 56 reg Dart on 2.
47617 and an 04 reg Solo on Mirehouse.
an 04 reg Solo on 1.
34079 short 300.
16447 on 22.

Well Lillyhall will need something for the 300 as these are getting regular use when the scanias are ill

We were spot on then! Any news on where the coaches are going when the X61 moves to Chorley?
Not quite sure, the interiors are knackered and are old livery scheme, i'm aware no money will be spent on refurbing them, i guess they could end up as training vehicles somewhere.

Yeah or sold, not sure if there's really a use for them anywhere else in the region, unless they were converted for school use but that's not worth the trouble.
16447, 16734 and 17017 (when it is fixed again) are all able to cover Scania's on 300. R-NBV's seem to be first choice at minute, with them being fully refurbished.
there's some "standard" Volvo Oly's moving over to North West from Manchester to supposedly cover what goes to Chorley, and replace remaining Leyland Oly's (excluding Carlisle's, as Richard Rose Central Academy School Work is due to cease in January 2011, now that the new school is built in the City Centre).
20910, 52628 and a flip dot Solo on annexe when I went past a few minutes ago.
14258 running dead to Lillyhall just before 1800. i'm assuming a bus came from Maryport Town Services and has replaced it on Moorclose 51 for the last few runs.

Would be great to have enough Olys to replace all the remaining Leylands in the NW!

Also worth baring in mind that the X61 doesn't move over to CY until Jan so there's still time for things to change lol.
