i think ( correct me if am wrong) 2563 and 4 are 52 platers so would be younger than the stuff ready to go

They are Y plate, it was 2566-9 that were the 52 platers.
2563 Y36 KNB
2564 Y37 KNB
2565 Y38 KNB

It would make more sense for them to go as the body is really non standard (and pretty poor TBH) and only 2565 has been P&Pd. But like you sat, things could change. Thanks for your updates, good to know what's going on.
no problem, i do myself expect things to change and if i do find out anything at all i will post (hopefully soon)
I don't understand the logic in refurbishing things then withdrawing them not long after. That stuff that's going all look like they're good! Sad
hybird decker arrived at bolton last night and today is in use for driver training and a mate whos drove it said its great to drive.
It ended up coming today has it did not make it to Bolton yesterday. Here it is on the bus station in the snow http://www.flickr.com/photos/jongraham89...hotostream
today the bus will be running between brookhouse and eccels for drivers to get used to
2454 still no idea where thats gone i hope to find out soon
2638 has departed for bootle
2639 has departed for speke
2800 is currently at speke for MOT
2999 will also leave the fleet soon
Optare solo 660 out on 715 today.
very strange to see that on there

also been given a fresh list of buses due to be withdrawn from bolton depot
2454
2474
2559
2560
2562
2563
2564
2565
2732
2733

2464 will be the spare bus and lasts coz its had a lot of recent work done to it including taking 2400's gearbox, on another note i wonder if 2454 has already been scrapped as thats not been seen for a long time now
