Yesterday in Blackpool I saw short Enviro 200 - MMCs on routes 3 & 4, long ones on routes 18, 74 & 75 and Enviro 400 - City buses on all other routes.
No Citaros though. Maybe they are not needed on Saturdays or are still SORN if services have not yet returned to normal.

Most Citaros have been in use, but aren’t needed at weekends

The good thing is that I experienced the rare feat of riding a fleet with no vehicles as much as 5 years old!
I reckon that when I go back to ride the tram extension to the new stop at Blackpool North, full completion currently due in April 2022, I shall go during the week to ride a Citaro. That is, assuming they have not been replaced by then.

For anyone who's interested Blackpool Transport are currently running Rail Replacements on Rochdale-Manchester Victoria line for the next 2 weeks or so due to major engineering works taking place between Victoria & Miles Platting.
From what I've seen of them they seem to be being quite well used with full buses on quite a number of journeys during the day which is good.

I saw one of their double deckers from a National Express coach last Saturday and thought it was on these rail replacement services
