Noted Megabus 54215 coming off Gillmoss Depot at 0710 this morning.Does this bus stable overnight at the depot?
The megabus vehicles tend to go in for fuel and toilet drops so could have been for that? Not sure if they stay there overnight or not but when I've seem them in late on (around midnight) they are the ones that are going to operate the Liverpool to London at around 3am.

The timetable is actually nearly combined virtually with the X1 so no competition for anyone shock horror

Three more Solos have arrived at Gillmoss, I don't personally know what the plan for them is but one is from Preston 47492 PX07HBP (possibly just for work) and two from Corby including 47129 KX54 XYX still in unbranded Corby Star orange. The other Corby one is 47404 KX55PFE.
