Probably too small a capacity for the route. They'll doubtless surface somewhere else in the Stagecoach empire.

Yes, they are.
More seating is needed on the 62 service.
SC&NL tried to get 6 ex Stagecoach Western 361xx (10 plate) from Kilmarnock that were being replaced by new E20Ds, but were not successful. They were used by Western Buses internally to replace the 08/09 plate Optare Versas which then came to Carlisle.
Send them to Gillmoss for the 204 lol

I thought that they'd be a bit small for the 204 but they could work
