Is 2540 from Runcorn here by any chance? Thanks

Pity that 894 has been withdrawn now, I always found the transbus darts to be excellent buses.

There's still plenty of life left in them.

Is 2537 from Runcorn still here? Thanks

Are repaints slowing down or is it just that we aren't noticing newly repainted buses as much? I thought with the reduced PVR, a fair few buses would have got done over the summer but it doesn't look that way.

How many buses can be painted simultaneously in St Helens? Is it quite a big paintshop?

In the paintshop you have 6 bays and in the bodyshop theres around 6-7 bays then the engine side as 2 bays.
I think they only have around 4 or 5 painters.
2698 entered service today on the new livery.
