18361 was on one of the Penrith 104 double-deck duties but the other one was 16118. 16650 was on the Keswick 554.
18357 has not yet returned with its new engine and 18365 seems to be out of service now.
18357 is now back on the road - it arrived in Carlisle bus station yesterday (Friday 21 Feb 2014) at 18.50 having worked the 1740 554 Keswick to Carlisle. I also saw either earlier this week or last week out and about in Market Street Carlisle.

18357 is now back on the 554 regularly but, possibly connected with its return, the two Olympians which came from Fort William, 16118/119, both seem to have disappeared. I last saw one of them in Carlisle last Tuesday but they do not seem to be about anymore.
33036 has returned to service with a a new engine, it's been operating on the 599 for the last two days
Solo 47022 which was transferred from Carlisle to Barrow (possibly as repaint cover) a month or two ago is now back at Carlisle. Carlisle now require an extra Solo with the start of the summer services 77/77A (Honister Rambler).
The two open-top Tridents 17217 and 17277 were both in Penrith this morning, and should both be on the enhanced service on 78 (Keswick-Seatoller) from Thursday which is the start of the Cumbria school holidays.
Dennis Dart 33460 is in use at Penrith as the staff shuttle to/from the bus station but not used in service.
Megabus Van Hool decker 50228 was in Solway DAF at Penrith this morning presumably following a breakdown on the motorway.
A large batch of Enviro200's will shortly commence delivery to Carlisle, a figure of 41 has been mentioned elsewhere which would logically assume the '05' plate Darts (34681-719) will be off to pastures new.

No idea, would probably replace older Darts etc elsewhere in Stagecoach.....
