no idea I'm afraid... but its going back..
Do you know why that is? Also I'm guessing that means the MPD that went in exchange will be coming back here...
Cadets are due I believe

I'm sure it came from St Helens, as the rest of the batch is there

Not all of the rest of the batch is there - ten are at Macclesfield/Winsford, and I believe Birkenhead also have one.

711 was originally at St Helens (I remember seeing it in service there), but had moved to Winsford before it moved to Bangor, as demonstrated by this photo. They received the X-reg MPD in exchange. Whether it's worth moving that back to Bangor, given its age, remains to be seen.
the solo sr is only suitable for the 62. the bus cant go up llandegfan as its scraps the front so no good for the 57/58. cant go on Bethesda/ gerlan as it has little power up the hill and when reversing in gerlan and scraps the backend.

that's the reason why its going back.

Extra Pulsars Bangor are seeking to free up the cadets to Llandudno, from what I believe ready for April.
A driver told me Chester's adl to rhyl /rhyls wright coastlines to sthelens/sthelens solos to Wales and green Lane pulsars to Chester don't know how true but have to wait and see but it seems fisable though
