What I think was one of MCTs former MMC200s now with CT Plus names was seen heading down Broadway past Sportsmans this morning complete with staff on board in hi-viz, probably heading to Chadderton to pick up vehicles for the new Huddersfield operation.

A 16 plate MMC has been at Chadderton for a few days now having some bits done so most probably that you saw. The buses for Huddersfield are currently running out of Leeds Depot.

AlSo noted a decker there when I walked past on Sunday. Still about 8 Enviro200’s there as well - presumably awaiting sale.

Most likely the Enviro200 are in store till hey need them within the group as I can't see them selling good buses

The Enviros are stored there pending the start of more new work in Yorkshire in September. There’s still quite a few MCT vehicles there awaiting collection/sale. A couple of hybrids were collected by Proctors last week.
The deckers are there for engineering work, think there having the exhaust/engine modified to upgrade the Euro spec - there should be a large presence of deckers at Chadderton over the summer while this work is completed.

Ref Mayneways response above, the MCT vehicles will be sold to pay debts.
